Accelerating Deployment

New Forecast unites finance and industry leaders to unlock the next generation of critical infrastructure.

Infrastructure has a problem.

From energy storage to next-gen manufacturing, breakthrough innovations struggle with bankability even after they’ve been proven and are ready to scale.

Entrepreneurs and developers accustomed to equity financing lack the knowledge to raise the debt capital they need to build.

Large lenders rely on repeatability and established benchmarks, and aren’t set up for the risks of anything novel.

Billions in capital earmarked for the next generation of infrastructure sit undeployed, waiting on new models and bankable projects.

A Generational Opportunity

In the coming decades, the world will spend trillions to rebuild the infrastructure of the 20th century for the 21st.

Fixing Infrastructure Finance

New Forecast is a practitioner-led institute and leadership network focused on unlocking the next generation of infrastructure through new market development.

Our councils don’t just analyze challenges—they build playbooks, create cross-sector networks, and develop solutions that make projects bankable.

  • Cross-sector groups of finance, industry, and policy leaders tackling deployment challenges in key infrastructure sectors. Councils break down barriers, develop solutions, and accelerate real projects.

  • Actionable frameworks for financing, siting, and scaling next-generation infrastructure. Designed by experts, these playbooks transform complex projects into repeatable, investable models.

  • A curated community of decision-makers across capital, industry, and policy. Members gain direct access to key stakeholders, build trust, and form the relationships that drive execution.

  • Innovative capital structures and funding strategies for emerging infrastructure. From first-of-a-kind projects to scalable debt financing, members create financial blueprints that unlock capital.

  • Vetted, high-impact opportunities. Members connect with trusted partners, secure financing, and move projects from concept to execution through a network built for action.

  • Shape the regulatory and market conditions needed for large-scale deployment. Members collaborate to influence policy frameworks, unlock incentives, and set industry standards for the future.
