The United States presents significant opportunities for Asian construction companies, developers, infrastructure investors and EPC contractors seeking growth through major investments in infrastructure, energy, manufacturing, data centers and commercial development. Yet alongside these opportunities comes a complex and often unfamiliar risk landscape, including unique contractual structures, litigation exposure, labor and regulatory requirements, permitting challenges, insurance and bonding expectations, and evolving geopolitical and supply chain considerations. This session will explore both the opportunities and challenges of doing business in the U.S., providing practical insights into market entry strategies, risk management approaches and lessons learned from international firms that have successfully delivered projects across the country. Attendees will gain a clearer understanding of the key commercial, legal, operational and project risks that can impact success, as well as strategies for mitigating those risks while positioning their organisations to compete and grow in one of the world's largest and most dynamic construction markets.
