Join us for a dynamic session designed to give you real-world insights into the evolving project landscape. This session will connect the dots between local insights and global trends.

The Future of the Project Profession – Insights from PMI’s Global Talent Gap Report

Join David Trott, PMI Head of Australia & NZ for an engaging session that unpacks the latest insights from PMI’s Global Project Management Talent Gap report. With demand for project professionals expected to soar by 30 million roles globally by 2035, this is more than a workforce trend — it’s a call to action.

We’ll explore what’s driving the global talent crunch, the industries and regions most affected, and what it means for project professionals at every career stage. Whether you’re starting out, mid-career, or a seasoned leader, this session will help you understand where the profession is heading — and how you can shape it. Discover the opportunities, challenges, and bold steps needed to build a thriving, future-ready profession.
