Unclear if this meets WP:GNG. I've found a few things which use the term: an article from the Project Management Institute ([1]), a Wiley textbook that uses it as the title ([2]), and a paper from a 2011 conference ([3]).

The main issue here is that each of these describe similar ideas but not necessarily the same thing; it seems possible "Project management 2.0" is in this case a buzzword that several people were independently using to describe their ideas. The sources used by the current article are mostly offline, and the ones which remain aren't reliable and in one case include a marketing blog for a company the article's primary writer might be associated with (based on their edit history; they have not declared any COI or paid involvement).

This page is also only linked from one other mainspace non-redirect page, Social project management, where it's in the "See Also" section of a page that has similar issues. Prior AfDs were a delete (the page was later recreated) and a no consensus from an AfD that had no discussion (not sure why that wasn't a soft delete).

Personally I think it's unlikely this is a widely used term and that this reads enough like promotional content and contains little enough encyclopedic value that even if there is some term of art here it's worth considering WP:TNT and letting it get re-added in a neutral/non-marketing way.
