AI in Project Management

Artificial intelligence is evolving faster than ever, and 2026 has already brought significant developments to Microsoft’s AI platforms. But what does this mean in practical terms for project managers, PMOs, and project organizations? 

From AI assistant to digital project colleague
Just a year ago, AI was primarily about chatbots. Later came AI assistants capable of helping with meeting notes, presentations, and documents. Now, development is shifting toward intelligent digital colleagues that can support project managers with analysis, coordination, follow-up, and decision support across project activities. 

Practical AI use cases across the project lifecycle
In this webinar, we provide an overview of the key trends and new developments in Microsoft AI for 2026 and demonstrate how they can be applied in practice throughout the project lifecycle. We take a closer look at how modern AI solutions can assist with planning, management, reporting, governance, and knowledge sharing, as well as how project managers can collaborate with new types of intelligent agents and digital colleagues. 

Through concrete use cases and live demonstrations, participants will gain inspiration on how AI can create value in projects today, while we also put these developments into perspective and discuss the role of the project manager in the coming years. 

You will gain insights into, among other things: 

• Key AI developments from Microsoft and others in 2026  
• How AI is evolving from an assistant into a digital colleague  
• Practical applications in project and portfolio management  
• Concrete examples of automation, analysis, and decision support  
• Live demonstrations of modern AI tools and agents  
• New perspectives on the future role of the project manager
