PMO Conferences – 2026 Update

Wondering what are some of the conferences that focus on PMO practices and why should you attend a PMO conference in 2026?

PMO stands for Project Management Office and represents the department in a company that manages projects, as well as supervises and defines standards and guidelines for projects, program and portfolio efficiency that the company should abide to. Big companies and enterprises have benefited from having a PMO for managing a big number of crucial projects, all at the same time.

To be more specific, PMOs make sure that projects are successful and well managed, and they are also tasked to standardize the processes of project and project portfolio management inside the organization.

Attending a conference can be beneficial for you as a project professional working in a PMO. Conferences are an excellent way to meet new people, expand your knowledge and gain new inspiration for the next steps in your career – and PMO conferences are no exception.

These conferences focus on best case practices for managing projects, programs and portfolios as well as include a variety of programs and lectures that focus on the processes around building and managing a successful PMO. On top of that, many of them also feature software exhibitions where you can discover innovative tools such as PPM Core that can help you better manage projects, programs and project portfolios.
