PMThrive 2025 Where Project Leaders Rise Together
PMThrive 2025 is not just another conference. It is the next evolution of a movement that began with PMRise 2023 and accelerated through PMEvolve 2024. This December, we gather again to shift direction, challenge assumptions, and inspire the next wave of project leadership.
Hosted by the PMI Ottawa Valley Outaouais Chapter, PMThrive brings together the most committed change-makers from across Ottawa, Eastern Ontario, and Western Quebec. It is a day for builders, doers, coordinators, strategists, and quiet leaders who get things done long before the title ever arrives.
If you’ve ever brought clarity to chaos, translated vision into action, solved a problem no one else would touch, or held a team together in the middle of uncertainty, then this event is designed for you.
Why PMThrive 2025 Matters
We are entering a decade defined by disruption, accelerated change, and rising expectations.
The professionals who will thrive are those who understand:
• How to lead without burning out
• How to leverage AI and digital tools responsibly
• How to build teams that can weather uncertainty
• How to influence without authority
• How to think strategically in fast-moving environments
PMThrive is where these capabilities are sharpened, tested, and elevated.
This event is your opportunity to step into the next level of your career—whether you are an emerging professional, an experienced PMO leader, or someone who simply wants to work smarter and lead better.
