The OMEGA Centre’s Seminar Programme serves as a platform for sharing research findings from ongoing global infrastructure projects, promoting engagement with both academic and practical audiences. The center has conducted extensive research and consultancy work on critical issues, including handling “Risk, Uncertainty, and Complexity” in project decision-making, understanding the power of “Context” on decision-making, and exploring the significance of “Sustainability and Sustainable Development Visions” in mega infrastructure investments.
This program invites speakers from diverse backgrounds within the mega infrastructure project development sphere, fostering interdisciplinary collaboration and knowledge exchange. Contributors include OMEGA Centre researchers and external experts, such as journalists, public officials, consultants, investment bankers, industry leaders, and academics. The seminars are open to anyone interested in mega infrastructure development, especially on an international scale, and are recorded for wider dissemination on the OMEGA Centre’s website.
