Pittsburgh PMI is excited to announce we’ll be hosting our 2025 Professional Development Day (PDD) The Nexus of Project Management: Dynamic Conditions, Technology, and Creativity on Tuesday, October 21 at Duquesne University’s Power Center in downtown Pittsburgh.  Join us for a day of exploration into the intersection of three pivotal themes that are shaping the future of project management.  Here's the line up!

Closing Keynote
