It aims at identifying the ingredients for accelerating this process on sound scientific bases aligned with the highest international standards. The event reflects the keenness of Dubai, in its capacity as an Arab city with a global profile, to act as a link in sharing expertise, concepts and visions between gurus of various industries worldwide. The Forum has evolved into a global platform for reviewing the best practices and coming up with innovative PM solutions with the participation of visionary global experts who have creative ideas contributing to the successful delivery of mega projects.”

The forthcoming Forum will discuss an array of topics relating to modern management concepts and project applications.

They also include OPM & Governance/ PMO, Smart Mobility Projects, Project Management for Interpreter, Shared Economy, Project Management Tools, Mega Projects, and HBMAIPM Showcase. Specialist training courses (master classes) will be held on the sidelines of the event tackling leadership, quality & competition, emergency & crises management, agile project management and benefits management,” added Al Tayer.

Ms Laila Faridoon, Executive Director of the Office of RTA Director-General and Chairman of the Board of Executive Directors Chairperson of the DIPMF Organising Committee, said, “Over the four past editions, the DIPMF has made huge achievements judging by the number of attendees, international speakers and topics discussed.
