PRINCE2®:2009 – the official launch

Last night was a busy one for our CEO Melanie Franklin – she had dinner at the Women in Transportation Summer Event, where Baroness Jo Valentine, Chief Executive of London First, spoke about The Planning and Economics of Transport in London.

Before that, though, she attended the much awaited launch of PRINCE2®:2009. According to Andy Murray, the main author for the refresh, 150 people have been invited to attend – most of whom have been involved in the project in some capacity.

As we’ve already said on this very blog, the PRINCE2® manual gets updated every few years, based on current best practice, as well as any issues raised on the existing version. Since its launch (in 1996) it has been updated in 1998, 2002 and 2005 – the 2009 structure of PRINCE2 remains the same as the other versions, although there are some changes to the naming conventions. See further details about all the changes here.

Our dear friend Elizabeth Harrin, from pm4girls, has come up with a very special report on the launch – watch the video here!
