Who We Are

The Major Projects Association is a membership association for organisations engaged in the delivery and the development of major projects, programmes and portfolios. ​ ​

When the Major Projects Association was established in 1981 the key objective of the Founders was to create a community to share experience, knowledge and ideas about major projects – both successes and failures – to help others to avoid mistakes and to incorporate good practice, in order that future projects would be better initiated and delivered.

LEARN MORE ABOUT US

“Our purpose is to improve the initiation, delivery and outcomes of major projects through the interaction of our broad range of members in sharing experience, knowledge, research and ideas.”

Our Events

We deliver over 30 events each year, shaped by the real challenges facing major projects. Our core programme includes confidential, in-depth problem-solving seminars and flagship events, with contributions from high-calibre speakers who are industry leaders with years of experience. Topics are suggested by our members and approved by the Programme Committee to ensure relevance, rigour and impact. 

Alongside this, we offer a range of member-led activities such as webinars, networking sessions and special interest groups. 

Every core seminar is written up in a detailed report, giving members lasting, practical insight they can apply with confidence. 

Together, our events create a trusted space for sharing insight, experience and solutions that help shape the successful delivery of major projects.
