The Big Picture

Infraday Southwest

November 5 | Phoenix, Arizona

Real conversations. Real decisions. Real infrastructure.

The Southwest is experiencing one of the country's fastest infrastructure buildouts. Population growth, AI and data centers, advanced manufacturing, cross-border trade, and electrification are driving major investment in power, water, transportation, digital infrastructure, and public facilities.

At the same time, extreme heat, water scarcity, grid constraints, and rapid development are creating significant challenges for the region's infrastructure systems.

Infraday Southwest brings together the public agencies, utilities, infrastructure owners, developers, engineers, contractors, technology providers, and investors responsible for addressing these challenges and building what's next.
