The HRO Today Forum EMEA 2026, organized by SharedXpertise Media, LLC, parent company of HRO Today magazine, is set to take place at the NH Collection Barcelona Gran Hotel Calderón on November 4–5, 2026. This marks the first time the signature event will be held outside the United States, specifically targeting HR executives from Europe, Africa, and the Middle East.
The event will feature a comprehensive agenda including HRD interviews, panel discussions on HR best practices, "think tank" sessions on key current topics, and the annual Awards Gala. This year's theme, "H(R)evolution," highlights the changing nature of the business landscape, with a focus on how HR professionals can adapt and thrive. The forum aims to provide a platform for networking, engaging panels, and thoughtful conversations designed to help attendees elevate their work to the next level.
One of the key topics at the forum will be the integration of artificial intelligence in workforce management. With today's workforce changing at a light-speed pace, savvy HR executives are leveraging AI to engage and retain top performers. The event will explore how AI can be used to enhance HR strategies and drive organizational success.
A highlight of the HRO Today Forum events is the annual Awards Gala, recognized as one of the industry's most prestigious events. It brings together inspirational innovators and thought leaders, shining a spotlight on HR leaders from across the region for their exemplary work. The gala will celebrate award finalists and winners for HRD of the Year and Talent Acquisition Team of the Year, honoring those who have made significant contributions to the field.
