Event Project Management: principles, technology and innovation provides a unique lens for studying event project management in the era of sustainability, digital transformation, smart cities and rapid development in technology. It discusses and explains how the sustainable project management model was utilised to develop a new process model adapted to the specific context of event management: Sustainable Event Management Model (SEMM).

  • Links the contemporary tools and methodologies in project management (such as Agile, Scrum, Lean) to the context of event management;
  • Explains and discusses the event management theory in an applied context, linking to sustainable project management, innovation and advanced technology;
  • Uses a range of international case studies to show the theory in practice;
  • Includes contributions from a diverse range of international experts;
  • Online lecturer resources to accompany in the form of teaching ppt slides, end of chapter multiple choice questions and sample questions.

With international contributions for renowned experts in the field, Event Project Management: principles, technology and innovation is a vital text for undergraduate and postgraduate students of event management and professionals looking to understand this vital area of the industry.


Part of the Event Management Theory and Methods Series. This series examines the extent to which mainstream theory is being employed to develop event-specific theory, and to influence the very core practices of event management and event tourism. They introduce the theory, show how it is being used in the events sector through a literature review, incorporate examples and case studies written by researchers and/or practitioners, and contain methods that can be used effectively in the real world.

With online resource material, this mix-and-match collection is ideal for lecturers who need theoretical foundations and case studies for their classes, by students in need of reference works, by professionals wanting increased understanding alongside practical methods, and by agencies or associations that want their members and stakeholders to have access to a library of valuable resources. Series editor: Donald Getz PhD., Professor Emeritus, University of Calgary, Canada.
