Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>Kenya’s Meetings, Incentives Conferences and Exhibitions (MICE) industry has received a major boost as the country is set to host one of the continent\u2019s largest professionals conference.<\/p>\n

Experts in the project management sphere will meet in Nairobi for a conference that is expected to bring together Africa\u2019s most influential PMOs, project leaders, practitioners, youth, and government to elevate the project management landscape.<\/p>\n

With over 500 delegates attending, it said, the conference would be the continent\u2019s largest and most impactful gathering of project professionals.<\/p>\n

The meeting themed “The Africa We Want: Together We Can,” has set a packed agenda with high-level experts addressing emerging and engaging topics, that will shed light on some of the latest trends in the project management space.<\/p>\n

From issues ranging from the continent’s skills gaps and the role of project managers in delivering Agenda 2063 to the role of women and youth in driving Africa’s future and mainstreaming project management in the public sector, it is set to be an insightful conference.<\/p>\n

\u201cPMI Africa Conference is a veritable meeting point for partners, stakeholders, and the project management community to connect with leading voices who will present in-depth content, share insights and highlight best practices in project management,” says PMI managing director for Sub-Saharan Africa, George Asamani.<\/p>\n

The conference seeks to drive thoughtful and constructive dialogue on the role of the project economy in Africa.<\/p>\n

The \u201cproject economy\u201d is one in which people have the skills and capabilities they need to turn ideas into reality.<\/p>\n

It will also seek to explore discussions by experts who will address emerging and engaging topics, that will shed light on some of the latest trends in the project management space.<\/p>\n

Founder of Global Protocol Solutions Jeane Mathenge said besides contributing to the city’s economy, hosting a much-anticipated conference a stone’s throw away from the Nairobi National Park, will strengthen Kenya’s reputation not only as a tourist destination but also fast-growing MICE market.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor Africa to realise its full potential and effectively deliver on the promises of Agenda 2063, practitioners will have to play an outsised role in executing development initiatives in partnership with the government,\u201d added Asamani.<\/p>\n

With the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) now operational, PMI says it is geared to support governments in their efforts to create a prosperous and sustainable future for its people as they implement flagship projects.<\/p>\n
