PMI targets tech professionals with project management skills
The Project Management Institute, a global leader in project management, will showcase its suite of certifications aimed at technology professionals, entrepreneurs, and innovators at the Tech Revolution Africa Conference 2025.
In a statement issued on Monday, PMI emphasised the growing importance of effective project management as Africa undergoes rapid digital transformation.
The institute noted that the event will be held at the Oriental Hotel in Lagos on January 31 and February 1, 2025. The conference will offer attendees the opportunity to explore PMI’s certification programmes, experience PMI Infinity, and connect with industry leaders shaping Africa’s digital future.
The Managing Director for Sub-Saharan Africa at PMI, George Asamani, stated that technological innovation is accelerating across Africa, creating both opportunities and challenges.
He said, “Project professionals turn to PMI for cutting-edge resources and methodologies to drive transformation in their careers, organisations, and industries. Through our recent partnership with Agile Alliance and Cognilytica’s acquisition, we are expanding access to Agile resources while pioneering the integration of AI into project management.
“These advancements will empower professionals to lead confidently and navigate the complexities of AI-driven transformation on a global scale,” Asamani.”
At the event, PMI will showcase its globally recognised certifications, such as the Project Management Professional and Certified Associate in Project Management, as well as its dynamic membership benefits and PMI Infinity 2.0.
The latter is an AI-powered project management coach designed to deepen expertise, master complex topics, and elevate execution to drive project success.
