What to expect
The pressure on Pharma and Biotech project leaders has never been greater. Clinical programs must move faster, portfolios must be smarter, digital transformation is rewriting the rules, and global manufacturing and capital expansions demand flawless execution.
That’s why the PPM Summit San Francisco brings together American leading project, program, and portfolio management (PPM) executives for two days of high-value insight, debate, and networking in the heart of San Francisco.
Through visionary keynotes, practical case studies, hands-on workshops, and peer-driven roundtables, you’ll gain not only the frameworks and tools to deliver results but also the strategic connections that will power your projects forward.
This is not a theory event – it’s where real solutions meet real challenges. If you are responsible for driving project success, portfolio value, or organizational transformation, the PPM Summit San Francisco is your must-attend event in 2026.
Conference format
Our 3-day conference is designed to help you in various key areas, such as resource constraints, managing complex portfolios, or confidently navigating AI adoption in PPM.

Engage in real-time problem-solving and collaboration through hands-on experiences with peers and experts.
Leave with actionable strategies, toolkits, and best practices.
