Australian project management blogger Chris O’Halloran is starting up a new portal that will announce upcoming projects, so that project managers and team members can compete for them. It will be called Projects Gateway, and he expects to bring it live on February 1st. I don’t know whether the intent is for this to be a global marketplace or strictly for the folks in Oz, but I’m interested in seeing how this develops.

Hi Dave,
Thanks for the write up on Projects Gateway.
Here are a few more details for being the first to scoop it!
The intention for Projects Gateway is to be a global marketplace for talented project managers and teams to find the top projects.
With the goal being improved project success rates by connecting the best talent with the best projects.
We will be live with our beta globally on 1st February where project managers will be able to register their skills, qualifications, upload a CV and select their project criteria.
They will then be sent alerts of any project that meets their criteria. The same will work for projects.
Entry will be restricted to qualified project managers and each will require verification of a course certificate or industry certification to ensure the talent pool is not diluted.
You heard it here first!
Thanks for the additional details, Chris. Let’s follow up on how it’s going after a couple of months in operation, shall we?
Hi Dave,
Great idea mate, lets touch base again after 3 months for a progress update.
