An economic forum organized by Business Insider Georgia was held to discuss the activities of development companies and issues related to infrastructure construction.

“We consider it important to use all such formats to both present our positions to the public and better understand the needs of the private sector,” Infrastructure Minister Revaz Sokhadze said after the forum concluded.

The minister participated in a panel discussion titled “The Impact of Construction-Infrastructure and Construction-Development Projects on Economic Development.”

During the forum, Sokhadze presented the ministry’s planned and ongoing strategic infrastructure projects to participants. The discussion focused on the development of road corridors and public infrastructure.

The minister emphasized the importance of infrastructure projects for Georgia’s long-term economic development, noting that large-scale infrastructure investments contribute to increased economic activity, attract private investment, promote regional development, and strengthen the country’s transit function.

Participants also discussed the legislative and investment environment necessary for implementing strategic infrastructure projects, the importance of increasing private sector involvement, and the creation of new jobs.

In addition, the discussion addressed trends in the development of the construction industry, the challenges and opportunities facing the sector, and the role of modern technologies, quality standards, and a skilled workforce in the country’s economic growth.

Representatives of the legislative branch, as well as the investment, financial, and construction sectors, attended the forum. The event was organized by Business Insider Georgia.
