International PRO PR Conference by Apriori World Set for March 2026 in Montenegro
From 26 to 29 March 2026, the 23rd edition of the International PRO PR Conference – the leading professional gathering for communication leaders with a focus on public relations – will be held at the Hilton Podgorica Hotel, in Podgorica, Montenegro. The three-day program will traditionally feature both speakers from Montenegro and international experts. Confirmed participants include Samuel Heath, Head of Communications at Interpol; Ghassan Karian, Chairman of Ipsos Karian and Box; Robert Wester, Director of Communications for the City of The Hague; and Tina Cipot, Communications Expert and Head of Corporate Operations at o28 Communication Group.
Starting this year, the conference organiser – the agency Apriori World – has introduced PRO PR Talk, which features interviews with communication leaders. It is expected that the conference will be opened by the President of Montenegro, Mr. Jakov Milatović, who will also take part in PRO PR Talk. Participants will have the opportunity to hear the President’s perspective on public relations.
“The PRO PR Conference was founded in Herceg Novi, Montenegro, in 2003, and was later held twice in Budva. This year, we have decided to return to Podgorica. Podgorica is not only the capital of Montenegro but also home to the largest number of public relations professionals. We want to provide all of them with support through new knowledge, as not everyone has the opportunity to travel the world, hear international experts, or follow current trends” said Danijel Koletić, President of the Organising Committee.
Leadership in Communication – ONE moment will once again open numerous questions and challenges in the communications industry this year The conference will feature 15 lectures, two panels, and the conference will also host the presentation of the PRO PR Globe People Achievement Awards.
The conference is supported by the Global Alliance for Public Relations and Communication Management, the Public Relations and Communications Association (PRCA), and the International Public Relations Association (IPRA), whose representative is expected to speak this year.
The program is currently being prepared, and registrations will officially open on 25 November 2025 at https://pro-pr.com/ .
