It attracts delegates from South Africa and abroad and has earned respect and recognition from the global project management fraternity as a world-class event.

Review, Reflect, Renew: Project Insights Gained and Lessons for the Future

The build-up to 2010, with South Africa’s physical and IT infrastructure, hospitality and business service development to meet it’s obligations as host of the 2010 FIFA World Cup resulted in an enormous number of projects with 2010 as deadline.

By September 2010, the event will be over and the world will know how South Africa performed as host and how it delivered on the projects that were completed in time for this auspicious year.

In the rest of the world, the past 18 months has presented other project management challenges. All of this makes late 2010 an ideal time to review what we have achieved, reflect on what the past few years have taught us, and apply these lessons learned to renew our approach, practices and mindset for the challenges of the future.
