About the Summit

Unifying 50+ HR Leaders to Drive the Future of Work

The 2nd Edition of the NextGen HR Summit aims to bring together the brightest minds and boldest voices in Human Resources to reimagine the future of work.

With disruption comes both challenge and opportunity, and today’s HR leaders are no longer just people managers; they are strategic architects of culture, agility, innovation, and purpose.

Following the resounding success of our inaugural edition, this year’s summit is bigger, bolder, and more relevant than ever. As we gather under one roof with 50+ visionary HR leaders, this platform stands as a dynamic space for conversation, collaboration, and collective action.
