Your Abstracts are due 15 April, 2013. Don’t just attend the IPMA World Congress in Dubrovnik, Croatia, 30 September-3 October, BE A SPEAKER! The global community of competent and performing project managers is very much looking forward to this event, and now you have the opportunity to propose a paper. And this year, you have exposure not only to IPMA, but also to participants from ICEC, the International Cost Engineering Council.

\IPMA World Congress Organizer

The Croatian Association for Project Management (CAPM), in cooperation with the University of Zagreb, the International Cost Engineering Council and the Baltazar Adam Krcelic College of Business and Management; and under the patronage of Government of the Republic of Croatia, is proud to host the 27th IPMA World Congress.

Congress Theme and Insights

The theme of this IPMA World Congress is“Finding Balance and Moving Forward”. Case studies, best practices, research results, new methodologies, tools and technology developments on project, programme and portfolio management are welcome.

Both individuals and relevant organizations may contribute to the conference through academic papers and/or professional presentations (position papers, presentations of best practices or significant case studies, poster sessions, training materials, book & software presentations, tutorials, round tables, special sessions and workshops). Organizations may also consider presenting their standards, sponsorship of various competitions (research, student, young crew) and organization of round tables. Professional papers (first abstract, followed by full paper or/and presentation) will undergo review of the Congress Professional Panel and will not be indexed in relevant academic databases.

Advantages for Academic Paper Presenters

Just as with the 26th IPMA World Congress in Crete, academic papers will be indexed in relevant research databases. This was a World Congress first, and we are eager to repeat this successful engagement of the academic community. Academic papers will undergo a double-blind peer review (first abstract, followed by full paper) and then indexed in the above mentioned academic databases. We are especially looking forward to receiving your proposals.

About Dubrovnik

Plan to visit the City of Dubrovnik, the historical republic from 1358-1808http://www.tzdubrovnik.hr, whose cultural monuments still bear witness to projects from past centuries. Dubrovnik is without doubt currently one of Europe’s most fashionable destinations. Steeped in history and virtually unchanged since the 13th Century the old quarter provides a fascinating distraction from the day’s business.

Add to that a mild Mediterranean climate all year round and direct flights from over 50 European ‘hubs’ and it’s easy to see why Dubrovnik is such a popular choice for combining business with pleasure. A little further south of the city centre, the verdant oasis of Babin Kuk is just one of many resort areas nestled amongst the pines and oaks of the Dubrovnik Riviera providing a picturesque setting for a successful congress.The over a thousand year old history of Dubrovnik is visible in every part of this city. See more about Dubrovnik and Excursions at the Congress site.

About the Congress Venue

The Congress will be held at the Valamar Dubrovnik President Hotel and Conference center, just north of Dubrovnik Old Town, on the peninsula facing Italy. The Valamar Resort has a range of hotels, all at excellent prices. See the interactive map, where you can view the locations of the hotels (may not work in all browsers). Or, see more details about the hotels.
