Abu Dhabi Investment Office and Abu Dhabi Projects and Infrastructure Center launched a new $15 billion public-private partnership (PPP) pipeline to accelerate infrastructure development across the emirate.
The program will bring 24 projects to market during 2026 and 2027, spanning the transport, infrastructure, and social sectors, while creating large-scale opportunities for private-sector participation.
Officials said the pipeline is expected to attract significant domestic and foreign investment and marks the next phase of Abu Dhabi’s long-term infrastructure delivery strategy through structured partnerships with private companies.

The initiative is also designed to support the establishment of international businesses in the emirate, strengthen supply chains and industrial capacity, and contribute to the goals of the Abu Dhabi Local Content program.
The diversified project portfolio includes 11 major transport developments valued at $9.5 billion, covering more than 300 kilometers of new and upgraded roads, tunnels, intersections, and broader network enhancements.
An additional $3 billion has been allocated to five infrastructure projects focused on dams, water storage facilities, flood mitigation systems, stormwater upgrades, and urban landscaping works.
Meanwhile, eight social infrastructure projects worth around $2.5 billion will include sports facilities, specialist healthcare assets, schools, and university campuses aimed at supporting community development and enhancing long-term livability.
The announcement comes ahead of the Abu Dhabi Infrastructure Summit 2026, as the emirate continues efforts to expand infrastructure investment and accelerate project delivery through public-private partnerships.
Commenting on the announcement, Eid Alobeidli, Director of Musataha & Public-Private Partnerships at ADIO, said “Abu Dhabi is continuing to advance infrastructure projects that support sustainable economic growth and strengthen the emirate’s position as a global investment hub through deeper private sector collaboration.”
Alobeidli added that “Abu Dhabi has established a credible public-private partnership model backed by clear regulatory frameworks, with the next phase set to expand both the scale and scope of projects across strategic sectors.”
