Member companies behind the agenda
Since 2013, the CEO Roundtable of Tanzania has championed Public-Private Partnerships as a practical instrument for national development. In that year the CEOrt initiated dialogue on PPP, engaging government officials to address policy framework weaknesses and recommend legislative improvements — the beginning of an advocacy agenda that continues today.
“Without new forms of production, you will rarely find new avenues for taxes.”
How a PPP is structured
Public Sector
Policy direction, enabling legislation, land and concessions, and long-term public interest oversight.
Private Sector
Capital, technical capability, operational efficiency and delivery discipline from experienced operators.
Public-Private Partnership
A contractual vehicle that shares risk, financing and responsibility on transparent, predictable terms — governed by the PPP Act and National PPP Policy.
Infrastructure
Energy, transport and utilities delivered at scale
Public services
Better services without overstretching the public purse
Economic growth
New production, jobs and — ultimately — new avenues for taxes
