If technology is leveling the playing field, how can you dynamically orchestrate capabilities at speed for today and tomorrow? This breakout session zooms in on how organizations and leaders can organize themselves for competitive advantage, while also unraveling the impact of machines on decision-making and accountability.
AI and Culture – By Yves Van Durme, Deloitte Human Capital Innovation & Growth Lead, and Else Verstraete, Chief People Officer at What’s Cooking
In the age of AI, the use of untrustworthy data poses quite some risks. Are we clear on the risks, benefits, and ethics of using data from and about the workforce? In this session, participants will explore the impact of machines and AI on the kind of culture, connections, and trust leaders need in their organization.
Skills and Work Re-design – By An Van Landeghem, Director HR Technology & Strategy at Deloitte Belgium, and Jan Heyvaert, Chief HR and Sustainability Officer at AG Insurance
The future of work is not simply about technology or Gen AI. It is about reimagining how human beings and machines can work together to unlock new possibilities. In this session, participants will explore how to redesign work to not only foster productivity but also to elevate the human experience at work. Discover how you can help workers to continuously grow, adapt, and thrive.
HR Architecture in the age of AI – Deloitte speakers tbc, and Nico Orie, VP People & Culture Global Operations, Digital Strategy & Northern Europe BP at Coca-Cola Europacific Partners

Subject matter experts will highlight important legal considerations to help you navigate compliance and governance challenges in this evolving landscape.
Technology-focused breakout sessions
The HR Tech Stack of the Future? It’s built for people, not processes, transformation, not transactions – By Cornerstone
Talent processes have become too strategic for basic ERP modules and too complex for disconnected tools. This session explores the “third option”: best-in-class people platforms. Discover how Cornerstone supports this model across learning, performance, skills, and recruiting.
From Fragmentation to Total Workforce Management – By SAP SuccessFactors
In this session, SAP SuccessFactors explores how you can bring visibility, control, and efficiency to your permanent and contingent workforce.
From Capability to Capacity: Making Skills Management Actionable at Scale – By Totara
Developing, and mobilising skills has become a strategic imperative. Discover why effective skills management matters, how skills gap insights support workforce planning, and how organisations can manage skills at scale alongside compliance requirements. A practical Totara use will show how these concepts translate into real-world execution.
From Systems to Insight: A Data-Driven People Analytics Approach to Organisational Effectiveness – By Visier
with guest speaker Stijn Adriaens, HR Strategy & Projects Director at Bpost
As organisations aim to become more data-driven, HR often implements a single global HRIS for standardisation, which offers operational benefits but falls short in addressing complex workforce issues. In this session, Visier experts will highlight how a People Analytics-led approach can help treat workforce data as strategic assets; shift focus to predictive insights aligned with business goals; and ultimately improve organisational effectiveness by translating people data into evidence-based decisions.
Exploring an Agent Workforce for HR – By Workday
This session explores what an Agent Workforce looks like and how it can benefit your business cross the different HR domains from recruiting to talent to learning to self-service.
