The Big Picture
Infraday Southwest 2025
October 21 | Heard Museum - Steele Auditorium | Phoenix, AZ
The American Southwest faces some of the most urgent and complex infrastructure challenges in the country — from extreme heat and water scarcity to rapid population growth, cross-border trade, and a sweeping energy transition.
On Oct. 21, join 50+ expert speakers and hundreds of public and private sector leaders from Arizona, Texas, California, Nevada, and New Mexico at the inaugural Infraday Southwest — a full-day forum focused on the future of infrastructure across the region.
This event convenes key stakeholders from transportation, energy, water, technology, planning, and finance — including state and local agencies, tribal nations, ports of entry, utilities, developers, and engineering and legal advisors — for practical dialogue and real solutions.
With a full agenda of panels, presentations, and networking, Infraday Southwest will deliver in-depth coverage on topics including:
-
Long-term drought response, regional water reuse, and delivery infrastructure
-
Grid reliability, solar and battery storage, and cross-state transmission
-
Climate-resilient design for heat, wildfire, and flooding
-
Freight and trade infrastructure, binational coordination, and corridor investment
-
Smart cities, broadband equity, and infrastructure cybersecurity
-
Labor shortages, permitting bottlenecks, and innovative funding models
Hear from leaders shaping the region’s infrastructure future — including ADOT, CAP, El Paso Electric, TxDOT, the Gila River Indian Community, the Ports of Long Beach and Laredo, and major cities and utilities across the Southwest corridor.
From policy to project delivery, Infraday Southwest is where connections are built, insight is shared, and the region’s infrastructure future takes shape.
