What People Are Saying About Us

Voices from the HR leaders shaping the future of work.

The amount of traction that we saw on our booth its very motivating I would say. We had really genuine conversations. And if I talk about the event I overall loved the event because of the quantity and quality that the speakers brought in.. Another good part was that I was able to connect with all speakers and have a really deep conversation about all the different subjects of HR. So, those were the key things which I enjoyed here.

Keka HR - Performance Coach

The organizers have been very supportive. What I am most excited about is the quality of participants, all the top organizations are here and the format event was set in such a manner that we got a lot of opportunities to network. If I describe my overall experience I would say it was the most productive engagement we had.

Foundit - Chief Executive Officer

This year is no different. It’s a brilliant fraternity conference where decision makers, influencers, and everyone related to the HR fraternity is present. It’s a great place to connect with potential partners. I’ve met many influencers and decision makers, and this usually brings the Great Place to Work footprint into the local HR fraternity, which often results in business relationships. It’s one of the most effective contemporary HR and technological forums in Saudi Arabia, and I think it’s one of a kind. I would definitely rate it a 10 because everything is so wonderful here.”

Great Place to Work Middle East - Managing Director

it’s a very good vibe, lots of senior delegates, impactful keynotes, I must say, very good speakers, so very, very educational and inspiring. I think the quality of delegates is really good. I am super impressed, it’s topnotch, very executive level delegates and great interactions with all the delegates that I met, so very good. Personally, I think I’ve made about 20 to 30 connections, and I hope to see a lot of business coming in. To describe the event in one sentence, I would say it’s bringing back the human and human resources because all the human connections I made were memorable and everlasting.

Oracle - Cloud Applications – ECEMEA

Good organization, crowd, and selection of vendors. Thank you for inviting me. Thank you for the wonderful management, QnA!

RAKTDA - Senior Director Human Resources,

This event has truly been thought-provoking. It has been fascinating to hear such a diversity of thought from the panelists, keynote speakers, and the many delegates I’ve met today. The mix of participants-from leaders of large organizations to start-ups-created a unique chemistry and brought a wide range of perspectives to every conversation. The energy throughout the day has been inspiring, and I am genuinely excited about the journey ahead.

Mercer - Partner,

A timely and enriching experience that helped us reconnect, recharge and gain fresh perspectives beyond daily work

Mashreq Bank - Head of HR Transformation and Governance,

The calibre of the audience, the diversity of the organisations which are represented and the conversations we have had have been phenomenal. We've got the chance to of course tell a story and more importantly listen to what all of our customers have to say about their journey and what kind of support they look from a company like Microsoft.

Microsoft - Business Group Director - Modern Work & Security,

It's a wonderful conference, one of the few conferences that I've been through where all the conference halls are packed. Good quality crowd, across the board engagements, and some good conversations. All in all, it's been quite a journey for us and lovely interaction with everybody.

The networking breaks were ample. I believe they were adequately spaced between the sessions so found the delegates to be energetic that is often something we are worried about between breaks. Especially in terms of quality of the delegates we believe that this is a niche event, niche summit which invited people who are particularly interested in HR techs application, in improving HR and delivering HR mandates to their organization.

Cornerstone on Demand - Regional Sales Manager - Middle East,

It was a well organised event. Much appreciated the preparation and attention to details. Good networking opportunity and insights from sessions.
