APM at BAM Conference 2025
On the Border: Management Challenges, Business Opportunities and Disrupted Institutional Contexts
We are excited to be heading to the 39th British Academy of Management (BAM) Conference, taking place from 1–5 September 2025 at Kent Business School, University of Kent. This year’s theme, "On the Border", explores the evolving landscape of management in the face of uncertainty and opportunity, from shifting institutional contexts to emerging business frontiers.
The BAM Conference brings together some of the brightest minds in academia and practice, offering a space for thought-provoking dialogue, collaboration, and discovery. APM will be there to engage with new ideas, connect with familiar faces, and forge fresh partnerships as we continue to shape the future of the project profession.
Research collaborations
Research collaborations seek to bring together like-minded individuals and organisations to develop and generate innovative research that supports the needs of practice whilst helping to promote a profession built around learning and collaboration.
FEATURED COLLABORATIONS
Project X
Project X is a major infrastructure research collaboration between UK universities, the Cabinet Office and Infrastructure and Projects Authority (IPA) and professional bodies such as APM amongst other partners.
The project aims to enhance the capability and reputation of the UK government in the execution of major programmes and projects through the promotion of world-class research and evidence based thinking.
OTHER COLLABORATIONS
Responsible Project Management
This collaboration between Bournemouth and Portsmouth University’s, the Association of Sustainability Practitioners and APM explores the idea that managing projects responsibly will require new knowledge, skills and capabilities. Future research and education will need to focus on developing practitioners’ mindset, mental models and competencies.
