Overview

Public-private partnerships (PPPs) have emerged as a mechanism for economic development by harnessing the strengths of both the public and private sectors. In this changing global economy, PPPs offer new solutions to address infrastructure deficits, improve service delivery, and stimulate investment. These partnerships combine the efficiency, expertise, and capital of the private sector with the public sector s ability to regulate, ensure inclusivity, and achieve long-term sustainability. By aligning the interests of both parties, PPPs create a platform to address complex economic challenges while promoting growth and social well-being. Understanding the underlying dynamics of these partnerships is essential for maximizing their potential and ensuring they contribute to economic development goals. Public Private Partnership Dynamics for Economic Development examines how governments can enable and encourage PPPs, investigating the existing and fast developing body of principles and practices. It provides a step-by-step analysis of the development of PPP projects and explains financing, contractual structures, and risk allocation. This book covers topics such as developing countries, crowdsourcing, and local economies, and is a useful resource for policymakers, business owners, educators, academicians, researchers, and scientists.
