1st BPUG International Congress
6-7 February 2008
Free exhibition
All inclusive conference place: from £550 + VAT
Millennium Gloucester Hotel
Kensington, London, UK
The Best Practice User Group (BPUG) is delighted to announce the launch of its first major project, programme and risk management event. A world class conference, networking dinner and focal exhibition will facilitate knowledge sharing for managers of complex projects and programmes. Delegates will forge new contacts and generate ideas and strategies to help their projects and programmes stay on track.
The BPUG Congress will answer questions such as:
- Should you apply a formal methodology such as PRINCE2®?
- How can you get the most out of practical guidance such as M_o_R® and MSP®?
- How do you gain buy-in from senior management?
- Where do you allocate limited resources most effectively?
- How much risk is acceptable?
Experienced speakers will discuss the challenges they face in their organizations during the two-day conference. They'll demonstrate which tools and techniques work for them. Specialist consultants and training companies will be on hand in the exhibition arena and there will be a series of roundtables and clinics for those needing advice.
The highlight of the event will be a gala dinner where delegates will be able to socialize and discuss the burning issues they face with their peers.
The parallel BPUG exhibition is free to attend. A full conference pass costs from £550 and includes access to all conference sessions, evening reception, gala dinner, lunches, breakfast and one night's hotel accommodation at the Millennium Gloucester Hotel.
This event is supported by the Office of Government Commerce (OGC), The Stationery Office (TSO) and The APM Group.
