Business Networking: Make It Your Own Project!

Great conversations and practical tools at PMI Switzerland’s Business Networking Event reminded us that networking isn’t about quick exchanges or collecting contacts, but about intention, consistency, and follow-through.

With Diana Bocskai and Marco Singarella, we explored how networking can be approached like a real project: consciously designed, deliberately practiced, and continuously refined. Through hands-on exercises and open discussion, abstract ideas quickly turned into practical and actionable insights.

The evening wrapped up with an apéro, giving everyone the chance to put newly gained tools into practice right away.

A big thank you to the speakers and participants for the energy, openness, and great exchanges!

Bridging the Gap: Project Managers as Human-Centred Orchestrators of AI Adoption
“Behind every algorithm, there is a choice — and behind every choice, a human.”

Artificial Intelligence is no longer hype or buzzword — it is experimental, regulatory, and signals a paradigm shift toward an AI-augmented era. Yet despite rising investments and growing policy momentum, most AI initiatives still struggle to scale — stalling between pilot programs and full adoption — and fail to deliver lasting value.

Why? Because success in AI is not just about the algorithms. It is about people, methodology, and structured delivery.

This session offers a strategic exploration of the evolving AI landscape — from key market trends and institutional developments to common pitfalls and the technical-organizational challenges identified by leading consulting firms and academic research.

Participants will also be introduced to the Cognitive Project Management for AI (CPMAI) methodology — an agile, iterative, and data-centric framework designed to equip project professionals with the mindset, tools, and structure lead responsible, trustworthy, and high-impact AI initiatives.

Whether you are advising clients or managing internal AI projects, attendees will gain actionable insights to move from theory to real-world performance.

Because the true trailblazers will not just adopt AI. They will lead it with purpose, structure, and integrity.
