2023 talks covered key topics under the following themes

Project Management Talks

The COVID-19 pandemic caught businesses around the world off-guard and has presented project managers with "unknown unknowns". The only way forward for project managers to combat this rising challenge is by keeping abreast of the new techniques, learning from leaders and understanding how best they can perform to succeed in this VUCA world.

The Project Management Talks will feature expert speakers who will share best practices and case studies to help project managers achieve excellence, encompassing topics such as risk management, agility management, lean construction, cost management, driving successful transformation and more.

 

Engineering Talks

For all the changes in engineering the basic design processes have remained the same since the time of Ancient Egypt. However, ‘open innovation’ is playing a major role in what engineering looks like in the future. Embracing transformation in Egypt’s engineering community will be key to future construction developments, including, computer simulation, younger engineers joining the workforce and developing engagement models to move from a cost based to a value based approach.

The Engineering Talks will focus on the opportunities engineering brings to the industry while balancing low cost and fast delivery of engineering projects with sustainability, safety of the workforce and innovation and design.

Facilities Management Talks

The Facilities Management market in Egypt is expected to grow due to the influx of foreign direct investment and an increase in tourism. Considering the government's commitment to smart city development plans, facility management services are in high demand in the region. A combination of upcoming airport construction projects and an increase in multinational companies is expected to drive the demand for integrated facility management services to increase by 89.75% in the next five years.

The FM Talks are designed to explore workforce safety and wellbeing, operation and maintenance and the agility of the FM sector to adapt to gaps and opportunities in the FM industry.
