APM connects with Europe's project management research community at EURAM 2026
ļֱ (APM) shared its research with Europe’s leading academics at this year’s European Academy of Management (EURAM) conference in Norway.
The conference, held at the University of Agder in Kristiansand, brought together more than 2,500 scholars from across management and organisation studies. The Euram conference is one of Europe’s biggest academic gatherings of its kind, hosted by a different university each year and split into 13 Strategic Interest Groups (SIGs) covering everything from entrepreneurship to organisational behaviour.
Gabriela Ramirez-Rivas, APM’s Research and Impact Advisor, represented the association at the Project Organising SIG, which was dedicated to project management research. She met with researchers in the field and showcased work APM has sponsored.

APM’s new research report, AI-Driven Governance: Intelligent Stakeholder Strategy for Mega-Infrastructure Projects, was presented and discussed by experts. The report looks at how AI can help strengthen stakeholder engagement on large infrastructure projects, something that gets harder as these projects become bigger and more complex.
Gabriela said: “It was exciting to represent the project profession at EURAM. Moments like this remind me how much the profession depends on academic insight. Research is at the heart of innovation, and conferences like this push the field forward simply by bringing academics together in one room.
“Research, by its nature, is collaborative. It needs to be tested, challenged and refined by others. We are all building on the work, and even the mistakes, of those who came before us.
“That exchange matters more than ever. As we face some of the biggest challenges of our time, project management has a real role to play in shaping solutions. Conferences like EURAM are where that thinking begins to take shape. I’m glad APM was part of it.”
