Speaker Info: Allan Rocha Allan Christian Rocha is a professional who has dedicated his entire career to project management. For about 12 years working with implementations of projects based on the Microsoft PPM (Project Portfolio Management) Solution. When starting your education in computer sciences had the opportunity to work in two of the largest consulting firms in project management of Brazil, Stefanini and AeC Group, where could experience countless challenges and meet various types of customers acquiring the necessary experience so he could take a step forward and follow his own dreams. At the age of 21 years he founded his own company, Sotis Consulting, a company specialized in project portfolio management and content management. During this period was not limited to the Brazilian market, and in partnership with EPM Solutions, trained and led, for more than 3 years, a remote team specialized in cloud services for project and portfolio management platforms. With the rapid business growth and the need to maintain the focus and quality of services, Sotis Consulting and Belo Horizonte Sistemas (BHS) have teamed up in 2008 to increase the supply capacity of project management solutions and content management. As Director of consulting, orchestrated, for more than 3 years, a solid maturity and growth of your team composed of more than 40 consultants who soon would become a national reference in innovation and quality. Dedicating his career entirely to project management, in July 2010 was nominated Microsoft Project MVP (Most Valuable Professional), title which keeps for more than 5 years. Always trying to innovate, created and idealized some products: “Manage with Passion” – Implementation Methodology of project management office, who brings a beneficial inversion of values, showing that, rather than look just for the purposes of managers, we must focus on users, which are the brains behind any result. With success cases in Brazil, United States, Denmark and Germany could prove the effectiveness and acceptance of his ideas, and even became a finalist in the selection of its project to be presented at the Gartner Business Process Management Summit 2013, in London. “PPMExpress” – Deployment Methodology for portfolio management solutions, which proposes a major change in the stages and steps of a normal process of deployment. Bringing faster results, when the entire deployment is based on a real-world scenario in which the client, since the first week, is able to interact and evaluate the tool, improving it according to his needs instead of spending days in unknown specifications. “Pangea PM” – new concept of integration, learning, collaboration and management of people that became the basis for a series of innovations, yet to come, Demystifying the project management and making it much more interactive, fun and connected to our daily lives. Apps for iPhone / iPad / Windows Phone / Office – Mobile applications that enable quick access to a range of information regarding the area of project management.

The eternal ambition to seek new challenges, with a dash of coincidence, resulted not only in a great business opportunity, but also an invitation to move to Copenhagen. Sold its holdings in Belo Horizonte Sistemas (BHS) in 2011 and moved to Denmark, where for 3 years worked as the leader of a high-performance team, increasing its capacity by 55% and surpassing in 45% the expected performance.
