Introduction
The latest 2024 Regional Report highlights PM Expo® 2024, Italy’s premier event dedicated to Project Management. Held annually in Rome, this significant event is organized by the renowned Italian Institute of Project Management (ISIPM). As in previous editions, The Project Management World Journal served as the official media partner. A standout feature of this year’s edition was the remarkable participation and engagement, particularly in workshops designed to tackle practical challenges. This underscores a key insight: beyond theoretical knowledge, there is a growing demand for strong execution skills in Project Management.
The Project Management Expo 2024[1] (PM Expo® 2024)
This year, approximately 1,000 attendees participated in person, engaging with speeches and workshops held across six dedicated rooms, each focusing on the following topics:
