Riyadh to host the fifth Global Project Management Forum on September 19

Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Municipalities and Housing is backing a three-day project management conference in the capital this month. The Global Project Management Forum, now in its fifth year, runs September 19 through 21 at the Fairmont Riyadh, built around the theme “Next-Gen PM: People, Processes & Technology.”

Attendees will include senior figures from the project management field worldwide, there to compare notes on how business environments are changing and swap approaches that have worked elsewhere. The underlying aim is practical: sharper project delivery, which in turn feeds into broader economic and development outcomes.

It lands at a moment when Saudi Arabia is investing heavily in how it manages large-scale development work. Riyadh has increasingly positioned itself as a regular meeting point for the international project management community rather than a one-off host, and this forum is part of that push to build professional ties and trade expertise across borders.

For anyone running projects, whether in construction, government, or software, forums like this are a chance to see how other industries structure delivery, track progress, and manage risk. The themes on the agenda- people, process, and technology working together- are the same ones we think about daily at Techxaro One.
