PMI Madrid celebrates Board of Directors Elections
Reported by Alfonso Bucero in Spain

Last January 11th, 2008, the PMI Madrid Chapter, with the support of the Project Management Institute (PMI®) and the Electoral Committee, celebrated the election of a new Board of Directors (BOD) for the Chapter. Although only 40% of the Chapter members voted, a new Board of Directors was elected.

Alfonso Bucero, who was PMI Barcelona founder and former President, was elected as PMI Madrid Spain Chapter President, Valentín Trijueque as 1st Vice President, and Miguel Angel Alvarez as 2nd Vice President. Henk Van Soest, José Luis Lucero, José Luis Muñoz, Felipe Fernández, Victor Alonso, José Moro, Santiago Marquez and Ana Ruiz were elected as voting members.

Now the new Board of the PMI Madrid Chapter has a new challenge – to serve all their membership, and to offer services to attract the Spanish Community. Most of the members of this BOD are new, as Board members, and are really passionate to move the Chapter forward through work, persistence and teamwork.

PMI’s Global Congress - EMEA 2006 was celebrated in the city of Madrid in May 2006, and that Congress had about 800 attendees. We strongly believe the PMI Madrid Chapter has enough potential to grow up in the near future, and to contribute much more awareness in the PM Spanish Community. Spain needs project management action.

Founded in 1969 and with over 250,000 members worldwide, the Project Management Institute (PMI) is the world’s largest and best known project management organization. The PMI Madrid Chapter is one of the largest components of PMI in Europe. The chapter actively promotes professional PM in the Spanish business community, providing access to a wide variety of PM information and resources. The PMI Madrid Chapter promotes career and professional development and offers certification, networking and community involvement opportunities. For more information, visit www.pmi-mad.es.
