Agile Austria: Graz, Austria, 29-30 January 2026

Billed as ‘more than a conference’ (aren’t they all, these days?) and ‘Agility Beyond the Buzz’, Agile Austria brings together people who don’t want to tick boxes, but to reshape what agility means. Two days full of practical insights, open discussions and meaningful questions – with perspectives from business, IT, education, leadership and coaching.

IRNOP Conference 2026: Delft, Netherlands, 2-6 June 2026

The IRNOP Conference will be held in Delft this year. IRNOP is the International Research Network on Organizing by Projects, a loose network of researchers founded in 1993, but it’s expanded since then to include scholars from countries all over the world. This is the event to be at if you are interested in the academic aspect of project management and organization of work in temporary structures.

Women within Project Portfolio Management: Dublin, Ireland, 16 September 2026

This women in project management event has morphed into Women Within Project Portfolio Management this year, and is later in the year than it has been in previous years. The event has changed it’s name so it’s not confused with the WIPM UK event, and I think the new WWPPM acronymn is great!

Regional Scrum Gathering: Brussels, Belgium, 8-9 October 2026

There is another regional Scrum event, curated by the Scrum Alliance, this year, and you can join that in October in the wonderful city of Brussels. Spending time with other people who get the challenges and successes you are also going through is a great way to feel connected to your professional and the wider community of practitioners.

The PM-Summit 2026 by the PMI Germany Chapter e.V. is the event for everyone who wants to get to know and actively shape the future of project management. The project management community will meet in Dusseldorf to discuss innovations, trends, and best practices. I’m expecting this event to be in German.

ACE Conference: Poland, 20-21 May 2027

They have two tracks: Agile Software Development and Product Design and Management. This is a great place to learn for Scrum Masters, Agile Coaches, and Project and Product Managers.
