Project portfolio management is emerging to become one of the most important developments in project management field for three primary reasons: 1) To stay competitive, organizations are striving to work on projects that are deeply aligned with their strategies; 2) To better tackle big challenges such as risks, resources, governance, and performance; 3) To improve investment performance and achieve even higher results by “doing the right projects” that compliments with “doing them the right way” (through program and project management).

But forums for project performance management are rare, and we know of many project portfolio professionals seeking to find suitable gathers. This problem is especially acute for those with the Portfolio Management Professional (PfMP) certifications who needs to earn sufficient “Way of Working” or technical Professional Development Units (PDUs) to maintain their certifications.

Portfolio management has played a central role in strategic execution since the development of business strategy in the 1960’s.  Organizations recognizes the importance of portfolio planning, not only to align strategies and develop robust scenarios for various situations, but also to ensure organizations can effectively tackle risks, resources, governance challenges, and other grand issues.   More recently, project portfolio management is starting to take center stage as organizations strives to compete successfully by “doing the right things”, “doing more with less”, and “doing them well”.   In 2012, recognizing the growing importance of project portfolio management, PMI introduced a new certification, Portfolio Management Professional (or PfMP) credential that raise the bar of the entire project management discipline.  Portfolio management serve not only as a bridge between planning and execution, but it also serves as a bridge between the “doers” and the “executive suites”.

Yet, even with this growing importance, there are few if any conferences dedicated to this emerging discipline.
