The World’s Leading Champion Of Project Management And Strategy Implementation, recognized by Thinkers50 and is ranked #4 in the global gurus’ Top 30 list, author of “Powered by Projects: Leading Your Organization in the Transformation Age”
Far Too Many Projects And Far Too Few That Really Matter: success comes not from starting more, but from stopping what no longer creates value. Well, easy said; how it’s done?
Elke
Geraerts, Ph.D.
Psychologist and Neuroscientist, researcher at Harvard, St. Andrews, Maastricht, and Rotterdam Universities
How HR Builds Resilience in an Organization? How can HR help organizations develop the human and AI strengths needed not only to withstand disruption, but to continuously adapt and thrive? In a world of constant change, resilience is no longer just a human capability—it is the ability to build effective Human x AI Teams.
Magnus
Lindkvist
Leading Swedish futurist, author of “Minifesto” and “Creative Friction”
Future-Ready HR: Build Human x AI Teams Before It’s Too Late. How HR leaders can experiment, challenge assumptions, redesign work, and create environments where humans and AI amplify each other’s strengths? Because the question is no longer whether AI will transform work, but whether your organization will be ready when it does.

HR WEEK EUROPE is truly amazing - well-organized, with lots of enthusiastic participants. I’m thrilled to be a speaker here. It’s inspiring to see such passion for HR, and the energy of the event creates the perfect environment for sharing knowledge, exchanging ideas, and shaping the future of our field.
This is energizing, smart, and warm. So many people are talking, engaging, and genuinely interested in meeting others and learning. I am absolutely thrilled to be here. Learning is absolutely essential in an uncertain world.
HR WEEK for me feels like a dream. There aren’t many big conferences that truly offer HR professionals the chance to experience fresh ideas, meet inspiring people, and gain valuable insights. The people in your company matter, and they deserve an HR team that’s top-notch and up-to-date.
HR WEEK is a great opportunity for people to come together, learn, grow, and connect. I’ve been inspired by the mindset, the questions, and the optimism about the future. I am very happy to be here.
Well, it is huge. I love the vibe, especially when you come in the morning, hear the music, and see all these people. It sets the tone for an incredible day filled with energy, inspiration, and connection.
The event offered great insights, an energetic atmosphere, and a variety of topics. It explored the future of work and what it means for people, leaders, and, of course, HR. It was an unforgettable experience, leaving everyone inspired to shape the future with fresh ideas and bold strategies.

This is one of the best-organised conferences I’ve ever attended - this is the truth. The vibe is amazing, and the people are genuinely curious. HR WEEK has been fantastic, offering an inspiring blend of great energy, insightful sessions, and opportunities to learn from the best.
Great to see an event of this kind taking place with like-minded people, discussing the most important facet of any business, which is the people factor. It’s a unique opportunity to explore new ideas and strategies that truly put people at the heart of success.
Enjoy the
Experience
"It isn’t just another conference - it’s an experience like no other. From inspiring keynotes and interactive workshops to exploring the latest innovations at the expo, every moment is packed with energy and ideas. You’ll leave feeling inspired, equipped with fresh insights, and ready to lead the future of HR with confidence."
