The National Business-Government Network
Without a doubt, the most valuable benefit of Council membership is our membership base. The Council's membership is the only national network of business leaders and senior government officials providing organizations with a dependable information source on current activities within the public-private partnership arena. For 20 years, public and private organizations have benefited from the experience of peers, contact with potential partners and the outreach to key federal and state organizations.

Bringing People Face-to-Face
Through its conferences and workshops, the Council brings together participants to tackle the spectrum of partnerships, including: education, environment, infrastructure financing, real estate, social services, transportation, water and wastewater, etc. These sessions attract top speakers in government and private business. Held in different regions of the country, program attendees come from both the local arena and across the nation, ensuring a broad mix of experiences and innovation. Specific industry related seminars and customized training sessions are also a focus of the Council, which are tailored to the specific needs of a geographic region.

Resources for the Individual
The Council offers a full range of print and electronic resources. The Council’s Web site, ncppp.org, offers both public and “members only” sections with readily available and up-to-date information. Our newsletter Council Insights and email notification Council Updates provides members with information on Council activities, fellow members and the partnership industry. Additional publications, compiled by the Council, as well as those written by recognized authors in the field of public-private partnerships, are also available. State privatization laws and conference proceedings, along with a variety of trade related papers, are included in our publication offerings.

Institutes, Committees and Task Forces
Special partnership issues are addressed through a range of member programs. Individual industry sector institutes provide a forum for collective action on common concerns: actions such as sponsoring mini-seminars, preparing testimony or standardized documents and contributing to the educational outreach of the Council. Committees provide an on-going framework for monitoring and addressing concerns that impact all aspects of public-private partnerships. Task Forces can also be organized for specific issues as they emerge.
