CALL FOR SPEAKERS
Passion for Projects Congress 2027
Shift Happens
📍 Helsingborg | March 15 - 16, 2027
The 2027 theme, Shift Happens, explores how project management, leadership, and governance are evolving in an era shaped by AI, continuous transformation, and increasing complexity. As change is no longer temporary but the new operating environment, traditional ways of leading, organizing, and delivering projects are being challenged.
Traditional governance models are increasingly colliding with the speed and uncertainty of modern delivery environments.
Many organizations are still designed for stability while operating in permanent transformation. The profession is entering a period where many established assumptions about leadership, governance, and delivery are being fundamentally redefined.
AI is already transforming how decisions are made, how teams collaborate, and how projects are delivered. At the same time, organizations face growing demands for sustainability, adaptability, and the ability to navigate uncertainty in increasingly complex environments, from digital transformation and PMO evolution to gigaprojects and smart infrastructure.
What we are looking for:
We are looking for speakers who want to share insights, experiences, frameworks, practical examples, and new perspectives on how the project management profession is evolving in this new reality.
We welcome perspectives that challenge traditional approaches to leadership, governance, agility, and project delivery, while exploring the evolving role of humans in AI-driven organizations. We encourage contributions from both digital and physical industries, including infrastructure, healthcare, manufacturing, sustainability, the public sector, and technology-driven transformation.
Project leaders are no longer just managers of delivery — they are enablers of transformation, adaptability, and long-term value creation.
We especially welcome perspectives connected to PMI’s M.O.R.E.™ framework:
