Success is Collective

Communities need new ways of designing and developing infrastructure. Too often, major transportation, water, and energy projects have resulted in division and exclusion from economic opportunity. Reversing this legacy will take early and intentional engagement. 

At PRE Collective, we aim to change how public infrastructure design, planning and funding processes can serve communities’ deepest needs and highest ambitions. 

WE FOCUS ON PREDEVELOPMENT

Predevelopment is that early, messy space where infrastructure gaps, needs, priorities, and potential solutions are framed. In the past, this has been a field dominated by technical experts and planners. To realize a better future, it needs to be a space defined by communities and the intended beneficiaries of our public systems and services. A space where transformational changes and a more equitable, climate-smart future are within reach.
