FAQs

General Information

We want you to be comfortable and enjoy the event. Business casual attire is recommended and since meeting rooms are often cold, you may wish to bring either a jacket or a sweater. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes as there will be plenty of walking throughout the venue.

Information on nearby hotels is available on the hotel page.

PMI has been made aware of incidents in which organizations falsely claim to be or to represent PMI by extending offers to register you for hotel rooms or PMI events. PMI will not reach out to solicit hotel rooms or register you for a PMI event. Should you be contacted by any organization or come across any other website that appears to reference PMI or PMI Global Summit Series and claims to offer lower rates or a promotion to register through such organization and/or website, we urge you to use extreme caution and contact events@pmi.org with any relevant information. These entities often create fake websites that look authentic but are not authorized to represent PMI.

The event location is:
bcc Berlin Congress Center GmbH
Alexanderstr. 11, 10178 Berlin
Germany

It is a common occurrence with large events, conferences and tradeshows for companies claiming to offer PMI attendee lists. It is PMI’s policy to never sell, rent or share attendee contact information, including email addresses. No company is authorized to distribute or sell any lists of attendees for PMI events. PMI will not provide these lists nor generate these messages. If you receive an email offering to sell you a list of PMI attendees, we recommend you do not respond to it. By responding–even with a request to unsubscribe–you confirm that your email address is a valid one, which may increase the likelihood that you’ll be contacted again. Please forward any email solicitations to events@pmi.org.
