Join us for an insightful session on the challenges of project management in innovation!

Founded in 2001, PMI Switzerland is the largest Swiss organization dedicated to project management, with more than 1,900 members. As a chapter of the Project Management Institute (PMI), it operates as a nonprofit entity under Swiss law.
