The Belt & Road Initiative
Opportunities for businesses
Initial phase
The initial phase creates opportunities for businesses with expertise in areas from construction, engineering and architecture to finance and professional services.
Construction phase
Once the infrastructure has been approved and finalised, it will create further opportunities for businesses supplying materials such as steel, concrete and asphalt, heavy machinery and components.
Downstream opportunities
Once construction is completed, this creates downstream opportunities in residential and commercial estate development, tourism, new shops and restaurants and increase in land value.
