LET’S BUILD INFRASTRUCTURE (LBI) is a coalition dedicated to advancing private industry investment in infrastructure projects across the United States through promotion of public-private partnerships (P3s). Georgia has been a leader in utilizing P3s as a source of funding to their growing need for improved infrastructure.
When the private sector invests in infrastructure; job creation, easing congestion and modernizing our infrastructure are the benefits Georgians realize.

Georgia has been at the forefront regarding innovative ways to fund infrastructure and LBI is excited to promote this forward-thinking vision.
