28th IPMA Poland Conference with the participation of FlexiProject: The power of Synergy in the world of projects
In a world where changeability and uncertainty have become part of everyday life, the 28th IPMA Poland Conference, held on November 20–21, 2025, in Warsaw, created a unique space for the meeting of people, ideas, and experiences. This year’s edition was held under the theme “SYNERGY”, understood not only as cooperation, but as a combination of trust, diversity, shared goals, and the energy that drives teams and organizations to act.
Joint presentation by FlexiProject and Phytopharm Klęka S.A.
One of the key points of the first session was the joint presentation by Włodzimierz Makowski (Member of the Management Board at FlexiProject) and Bartosz Kwiatkowski (Project Manager at Phytopharm Klęka S.A.), titled: “The Transformation of Project Management at Phytopharm Klęka S.A., or the Power of Synergy in Practice.”
During the presentation, participants were able to learn about the real-life path of transforming project management in a company from the pharmaceutical industry. The speakers discussed:
- the beginnings of implementing a project-based approach in the organization,
- the current operating model, including the role of the Project Management Office (PMO),
- key challenges related to the implementation of investment projects and product development in the pharmaceutical sector.
Special attention was also given to the implementation of a project management system, its impact on team efficiency, as well as future development plans and maintaining project standards within the organization. The presentation demonstrated in a practical way how well-planned synergy between technology, processes, and people can effectively support a company’s growth.
Speakers, experience sharing, and networking
The stage of the 28th IPMA Poland Conference featured experienced leaders, business experts, representatives of large organizations, and the NGO sector. The diversity of perspectives, industries, and experiences allowed participants to view project management from many angles and to find inspiration for implementing changes in their own organizations.
As every year, the conference was also an excellent opportunity for networking, informal discussions, and building valuable business relationships. Direct exchange of experiences among project management practitioners is always one of the greatest strengths of this event.
PPEA and Polish PMO Award Competitions
During the ceremonial Gala accompanying the 28th IPMA Poland Conference, the winners of two prestigious competitions were announced: the Polish PMO Award 2025 and the Polish Project Excellence Award 2025. The Gala was a true celebration of mature project management, innovation, and effective teamwork.
As part of the Polish PMO Award 2025, for the first time the jury presented awards in two categories:
- Design and implementation of a PMO,
- Development and improvement of a PMO.
This new division of categories made it possible to more accurately recognize both organizations building PMO structures from scratch and those that are successfully developing already mature project offices.
In turn, the Polish Project Excellence Award 2025 recognized the best projects in four categories:
Research and Development, Infrastructure Projects, Innovation and Change, and Social Projects.
This year’s initiatives once again confirmed the high level of maturity and quality of project management in Polish organizations, as well as their real impact on business development and the social environment.
