Seminar synopsis
We are delighted to launch the Project Experience (PREX) SIG as the 24th SIG at the British Academy of Management. For the past two years we have been running a track at the annual conference and thanks to the positive response and engagement of the project research community we have been able to gain approval to establish this SIG.
In this event we will introduce our aim and objectives as well as our planned activities. We will also be joined by a selection of senior academics and practitioners who will share their thoughts about what the establishment of the SIG means for the project research community, what we contribute to the BAM community and how this is relevant for project practice.
