Event Info & Sponsors

Forget AI for the minute or at least put it in the toolkit until you've decided what you want it to do for you. Now think about High Performance Resourcing. And the people doing the work. Where are they? How well are they doing? What can you do to help them? Do you know what they are working on. Do you know what they did today? How do connect the people not just on one project but all the people on all the projects. How's the whole organisation doing? How could AI help? Really help or just automate chaos? Is it about Controls or Skills? Or both?

EVA presents a review and discussion of subjects related to the improvement of the processes and people involved in the delivery of project programmes and portfolios, ultimately delivering better value for taxpayer stakeholder and shareholder alike as well as improving the quality and wellbeing of working life for individuals and organisations. Audience and speakers are drawn from middle to very senior practitioners in government industry audit and academia.

The unprecedented and unexpected adjustments of operating through a global crisis; the challenges of the current economic climate; these are, and have been, truly turbulent times in recent years. And now we have an American President whoh trumps everything. But there is much to celebrate, nonetheless, in the world of project controls, with innovations and successes born out of this very turbulence.
