Where HR leaders come together to celebrate excellence in people practices, exchange ideas and shape the future of work.

Through our global Conference, People Summits, Executive events and webinars, we bring together independent research and insight, global best practice and peer learning to help HR leaders build stronger organisations with greater confidence.

Global Conference

On 12 May 2027, our first Global Conference will bring together HR leaders from Certified Top Employers and invited guests from around the world to the Gashouder in Amsterdam.

Bringing together one of the world’s leading HR communities, the conference will combine independent research, global best practice, thought-provoking speakers and peer learning to explore the trends transforming organisations and the decisions facing HR leaders today.

Attendees will:

Hear from leading thinkers and practitioners

Get an early look at our latest research and insights

Learn directly from organisations addressing today’s workforce challenges

Exchange ideas through interactive sessions and honest peer discussion

Build valuable connections across our global community

More than a conference, it is where leaders come together to exchange ideas, challenge thinking, build lasting connections and return to their organisations with greater confidence for the decisions ahead.

Every attending Top Employer will be recognised during the Conference, as we mark your Certification together as one of the world’s leading HR communities.

Global and Enterprise Top Employers will also be invited to a leadership dinner the evening before, on 11 May.

People Summits

Our flagship regional events bring together HR leaders from Certified Top Employers and invited guests to recognise excellence in people practices while exploring the workforce challenges shaping organisations today and tomorrow.

Through client best-practice case studies, independent research, external experts and peer discussion, attendees gain practical insight into today’s most important HR priorities such as AI, workforce transformation, leadership, employee experience and organisational performance.

Every People Summit is designed to inspire new thinking, foster meaningful connections and equip leaders with practical ideas they can take back to their organisations.

Every People Summit also includes dedicated recognition moments, recognising your Certification alongside fellow Top Employers

Executive Events

Designed for senior HR leaders, our Executive events provide invitation-only opportunities to build relationships with peers, explore emerging workforce challenges and gain fresh perspectives through smaller, highly curated experiences. Whether through CHRO roundtables, Executive dinners or Leadership Exchanges, each format is designed to foster meaningful connections and high-quality discussion.

CHRO Roundtables

Our most senior executive forum brings together CHROs and Chief People Officers for confidential, peer-level discussion on the decisions shaping the future of work. These invitation-only roundtables create space for candid conversation about leadership, organisational transformation and the strategic challenges executives rarely have the opportunity to discuss elsewhere.

Leadership Exchange

Hosted in partnership with leading organisations, Leadership Exchanges bring together HR leaders to examine one strategic workforce challenge through client best-practice case studies, expert perspectives and facilitated discussion. By sharing experiences and comparing approaches with peers, participants gain broader perspective and greater confidence in navigating complex people decisions.

Webinars and Insights

Can’t join us in person? Our regular webinars and online discussions bring the latest research, client stories and workforce trends to HR leaders around the world, helping our community stay connected throughout the year.
