LAUDERDALE, FL -- (Marketwire) -- 02/02/12 -- Jane Garvey, the former head of the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration, will be the keynote speaker for "Public Private Partnerships (PPP): The Future of Public Construction in Florida," a workshop for businesses, contractors, investors and government officials, Thursday, February 16 at the Sheraton Ft.

From 1997 to 2002, Ms. Garvey served as the 14th Administrator of the FAA.
Currently Ms. Garvey serves as North American Chair, Meridiam Infrastructure, an investment management company that specializes in PPP projects.
Ms. Garvey will discuss financing of Public Private Partnerships in her presentation, "Demystifying the PPP Process -- The Role of the Equity Partner."
New legislation in the Florida Legislature (HB 576/SB 337) encouraging Public Private Partnerships with local governments will also be reviewed and analyzed by a panel of experts. Other topics include: "A Top Ten List of Practical Steps for Finding PPP Opportunities,'' plus a panel of experts who will share strategic insights on PPP opportunities.
