SharedXpertise Media, LLC, parent company of HRO Today magazine and its associated properties, has announced the 2026 HRO Today Forum EMEA, scheduled for November 4–5 at the NH Collection Barcelona Gran Hotel Calderón. This marks the first time the signature event will be held outside the United States, convening HR executives from Europe, Africa, and the Middle East for a comprehensive agenda.
The forum will feature HRD interviews, panel discussions on HR best practices, "think tank" sessions on current key topics, and the annual Awards Gala. The 2026 theme, "H(R)evolution," highlights the changing nature of the business landscape, with a full agenda of networking events, engaging panels, and thoughtful conversations designed to help attendees elevate their work to the next level.
According to the organizers, the event will welcome leaders from across the region to network with peers from different countries and share professional insights. A key focus will be on how savvy HR executives are leveraging AI in workforce management to engage and retain top performers in today's rapidly changing workforce.
A highlight of the forum is the annual Awards Gala, among the industry’s best-known and most prestigious events, bringing together inspirational innovators and thought leaders. The gala will shine a spotlight on HR leaders from across the region for exemplary work, with HRO Today celebrating all award finalists and winners for HRD of the Year and Talent Acquisition Team of the Year.
