The Roosevelt New Orleans
New Orleans, LA

Hear Leading Capital Providers and Project Developers Lay Out What It Will Take to Source Investment and Debt Capital in 2025!

Projects & Money the always-imitated but never-duplicated event, is the meeting where the country’s leading project developers learn what they need to know to source investment and debt capital in 2025. Returning to New Orleans on January 27-29, 2025, Projects & Money is a unique opportunity to hear the nation’s leading debt and equity investors provide unique perspectives on the latest trends, approaches, issues and opportunities in the energy infrastructure market.

As the first major energy conference to take place after the 2024 election, Projects & Money will deliver a comprehensive analysis of the election’s likely consequences for the energy industry in 2025 and beyond. Senior executives in the project finance community will detail the challenges you’ll face and strategies you should use for accessing capital from both traditional and novel sources, covering the situation for solar, wind, storage, and gas-fired generation projects, as well as for emerging technologies like hydrogen, carbon capture, alternative fuels and other areas of growing activity.

High-powered networking is at the heart of Projects & Money. From beginning to end, there will be constant opportunities to meet key decision-makers from both the project development and capital provider communities. These are the people who can help you answer your critical questions: Where will the best markets be for new project development? How will the industry be mitigating risks? What are the best ways to capitalize on new opportunities that will lead to successful deals?

Come, join us in New Orleans to kick-off your 2025 calendar year. While this event has imitators, it really has no peers. You’ll come away with genuinely new approaches, strategies and relationships that developers and financiers will be using to get projects across the finish line in 2025’s unprecedented financing and investment environment, and across the full range of today's expanded spectrum of project opportunities.
