In partnership with seven MDBs, the GI Hub has issued a Call for Submissions for technology-enabled solutions for sustainable roads. The program will provide governments and investors with a pipeline of technology-enabled solutions to make roads more sustainable, and will give technology solution providers an opportunity to pitch their solutions to MDBs for use on current and future road projects.

A GI Hub program that brought together eight multilateral development banks in a partnership to accelerate technology solutions for sustainable roads in emerging markets has been featured in the non-profit, climate-focused publication Grist.

Over the last decade, much has been written about globalisation and how we’re more connected than ever before. In the infrastructure world, we think of connectivity as the “linkages of communities, economies and nations through transport, communications, energy, and water networks across a number of countries” .

When we as consumers decide to invest our money—whether through shares, bonds, or other instruments—we look at whether our investment will deliver a solid financial return. It makes sense then that the same risk-return principle is applied to investments in infrastructure.

The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted all of our lives. And amidst the crisis it is impossible to envision how long it will last, or how life will be different once it is over. On the issue of mobility, however, a recent report by McKinsey & Co offers an optimistic forecast: this short period of disruption won’t affect existing major trends.

Increased adoption of digital infrastructure will allow cities, regions and their transport operators to integrate new transport modes.

The GI Hub collaborated with eight multilateral development banks on a systematic approach to scaling up technology solutions for sustainable roads.

The Fourth Industrial Revolution (Industry 4.0) presents a significant opportunity for digital transformation in the infrastructure (architecture, engineering, and construction) industry. This sector, traditionally reliant on manual labor, mechanical technology, and traditional business models, has seen limited innovations in productivity compared to many other global industries. However, new digital technologies, particularly InfraTech solutions like drone technology, offer a promising pathway to revolutionize this industry.
