India to Need 160,000 More Construction Project Managers by 2035: PMI Report
India is projected to require nearly 160,000 additional construction project managers by 2035, a 67% increase from current numbers, according to the Project Management Institute's Construction Talent Gap report. This demand reflects the country's rapid economic growth and the increasing complexity of projects in infrastructure, manufacturing, energy, and urban development. While India has a strong engineering talent base, more professionals skilled in managing complex projects will be needed. PMI will hold a related conference in Bengaluru on October 3, focusing on future-ready project management in the AI era.
