Panelists will focus on resilience as an investment enhancement and discuss how resilience-linked bonds/loans can improve lending terms and returns for disaster mitigation. This approach can enhance the business case for resilience investments and provide opportunities for Insurance premium reductions and for stronger Public-Private Partnerships that can improve private sector participation to strengthen America's Infrastructure and achieve broader economic benefits.

Join us for the Opening Keynote of the Building Innovation 2025 Conference with The Honorable Garret Graves, former U.S. Representative for Louisiana's 6th Congressional District. A passionate advocate for disaster relief and resilient infrastructure, Congressman Graves will share his extensive experience in responding to the increasing threat of hazards, particularly in Louisiana, one of the nation’s most vulnerable regions.
