2025 edition of MeRIT workshop “fil rouge” is about the innovative strategies and practices that Project Management Community has developed in response to recent major disruptions and context evolutions.

The Event will, as usual, go “beyond” the traditional approaches and will share and discuss new perspectives and practices that support Project resilience, adaptiveness, and success.

Day one will be dedicated to the state of art and the future of megaproject management research. Researchers and PhD students will have the opportunity to present papers and industrial case studies (including those still in a working version) and receive feedback from acknowledged academics. A process of review will follow to the conference and selected papers will be then published in a Scopus indexed Springer publication.

Day two will be dedicated to the stakeholders’ perspective on Megaprojects. In this sense, the top managers point of view of international leading companies will be tackled, and through round tables, a multidisciplinary panel of experts will be invited to provide their vision on new trends and challenges in managing complex and mega projects.
