Since 2013, non-OECD countries have held a bigger share of the global output than high-income economies. The World's GDP is expected to grow 2.5x over the next three decades, driven mostly by emerging economies.
In 2035, there should be 760 cities with more than 1 million people, vs 512 today. Of the 48 megalopolis (>10M people), 41 will be in countries currently classified as low- or middle income.
This fast pace of development can happen only if these countries build the required infrastructure. However, not only do they need to accommodate the emergence of a new urbanised middle class with higher standards and expectations but they often do it from a relatively low starting point. Moreover, the sustainability agenda around climate change and environmental footprints defines stringent constraints and regulations for such infrastructure projects.
