In a global survey by the Project Business Foundation, out of 534 respondents,

• 10.3% said, special education for Project Business is unnecessary.
• 33.1% said, they already have received such special education.

56.6% remaining is a huge market:

• Project Business contributes an estimated 20% to 30% of the global GDP (~$ 11 Trillion).
• Over 50% of project managers are engaged in managing Project Business on the side of a customer or contractor.

To date, these project managers have remained overlooked. Underserved by associations, professional literature, software vendors, academia, vocational training, and consultants alike, they have to rely on trial and error.

However, trial in Project Business is expensive, and error even more.

The demand is undeniable. In a world increasingly driven by cross-corporate project work, the lack of targeted support is not just a gap – it’s a market opportunity.
