A group of visionaries headed by Dr. P. N. Sridharan initiated the process of establishing a new PMI® - affiliated chapter in Chennai in the year 2002. Since then, many passionate volunteer leaders have helped the organisation take giant strides to the vibrant Chapter it is today.

The PMI Chennai Chapter (PMICC) has the motto of being an organisation "of the members", "by the members" and "for the members".

We serve wide cross-section of society including the "ABC" of Academia, Business and Community.

PMICC is a non-profit oriented chartered component of Project Management Institute (PMI), headquartered in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania, USA.

Additionally, we are a registered society under the Tamilnadu Registration of Societies Act. We are therefore a not-for-profit, tax- exempt membership Society.
