  • PUBLIC PROCUREMENT AND PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS, CONCESSIONS AND PRIVATIZATION

    “You and I come by road or rail, but economists travel on infrastructure.”

    Margaret Thatcher, Former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom

    The interaction between public and private sector is a driving force for modern innovations. As with any partnership, the key factors for achieving successful cooperation in this area are based on trust and effective communication, both of which should step on a healthy legal framework that clearly outlines the rights and obligations of each party. As a leader in these practice areas, Andrey Delchev and Partners – Eurolex has extensive experience in advising private companies and public enterprises on matters such as public procurement, concessions, and privatization procedures.
