Project Management Inspiration Event

4 November 2025, 16:00-18.00 hours

HighTechXL, High Tech Campus 27 Eindhoven

Program

Join us on November 4th for an energising event where we explore how project management becomes a true enabler of innovation. Together with leading experts, John Hermarij and Hans Meeske, we’ll move beyond theory into real-world application.

Talk about how project success doesn’t come from rigid models, but from action—trying, adjusting, and learning. You’ll discover how practical tools and sharp insights can help teams move forward, especially when responsibilities blur or risks threaten progress.

And dive into the power of data-driven leadership and process thinking. From high-tech to healthcare, you’ll see how monitoring and improving performance leads to smarter decisions and better outcomes.

Get ready for hands-on inspiration, powerful stories, and fresh perspectives—because real leadership starts with doing
