Description

Global Infrastructure Outlook to 2029

Summary

This report provides a detailed analysis of the prospects for the global infrastructure construction outlook to 2029.

Global infrastructure continues to show strong growth in 2025, supported by sustained urbanization and ongoing public and private investment across essential energy, transport and utility systems. Real-term global output is expected to grow by 4.7% in 2025. Although this reflects solid growth, it marks a clear moderation from the 7.0% expansion recorded in 2024.

Scope
  • An overview of the outlook for the global infrastructure construction sector to 2029.
  • Analysis of the outlook for the residential construction sector in major global regions: North America, Latin America, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, South Asia, South-East Asia, North-East Asia, Australasia, the Middle East and North Africa, and Sub-Saharan Africa.
  • Analysis of the latest data on infrastructure construction trends in key markets.
Reasons to Buy
  • Evaluate regional infrastructure construction trends from insight on output values and forecast data to 2029. Identify the fastest growers to enable assessment and targeting of commercial opportunities in the markets best suited to strategic focus.
  • Identify the drivers in the global infrastructure construction sector and consider growth in emerging and developed economies.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
