The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly in Project Business

Project Business – the execution of projects for paying customers – is booming.
Here, the contractor team does the project work, but the target stakeholders sit in a different organization – the customer.
However, most organizations and their people aren’t equipped to handle the complexity and speed of cross-corporate projects. The opportunities are massive, but so are the risks:
Indeed, in Project Business, it’s not enough to master project management. Customer projects are not merely there to support a business. They are the business. These projects aren’t just about outcomes – they must generate net income. If they don’t, they’re liabilities.
Sometimes, Project Business is good business, sometimes it’s bad business, and in worst cases, things may get really ugly.
Join us for a 90-minute deep dive into:
The Good: Discover how project business drives new revenue streams, boosts agility, and fast-tracks innovation.The Bad: Learn how financial instability, broken trust, and scaling failures derail even promising firms.
The Ugly: Hear real-world horror stories such as legal minefields, culture clashes, and leadership black holes bleeding companies dry.
This session pulls no punches. It’s built for professionals who want practical insight, sharp thinking, and zero sugar-coating.
If you’re serious about thriving in a world run on cross-corporate projects, this isn’t optional – it’s survival. Don’t miss it.
