HR Forum 2025: Prepping for Tomorrow

Two days designed for everyone working with people, leadership, and organization.

The pace of change in working life has never been higher. Geopolitics, technology, and shifting employee expectations are reshaping how we lead, organize, and develop people. How quickly can you adapt – and turn new knowledge into action? For leaders and HR, it is speed, agility, and the ability to act on insights that now separate the best from the rest.

At HR Forum 2025, we start with the big picture: What does global uncertainty mean for the Nordics, and how should leaders respond? From there, we move into plenary sessions that provide concrete insights and tools – from People Analytics with David Green, to The Future of HR: Architecting Workforce 2030 with Bo Vialle-Derksen, and HR’s role in innovation with Georg von Krogh. You will also hear from Katarina Berg, former CHRO at Spotify and now CHRO at On, and Volker Jacobs, on how AI can transform productivity, engagement, and HR’s impact.

This is the conference for organizations of all sizes – whether you lead a small HR team or a large department. The goal is that you leave with new perspectives and insights you can apply immediately in your own workday.

Two days with leading voices from across the Nordics and the international HR community. Two days of inspiration, perspectives, and practical solutions – preparing you and your organization for the future.
