Hello,

The world of work is experiencing one of the most profound transformations in its history. As artificial intelligence, data, automation, and digital technologies continue to redefine how organizations operate, the most important question is no longer how quickly companies can adapt to technology, but how effectively they can unlock and elevate human potential.

Today, organizational success is measured not only by financial performance, but also by learning agility, cultural resilience, leadership excellence, and employee experience. The most successful organizations of the future will not simply be those that embrace technology; they will be those that create meaningful synergy between human capability and technological advancement.

Inspired by this vision, Global HR Summit 2027 will once again bring together some of the world’s most influential thought leaders, accomplished CHROs, CEOs, academics, and inspiring keynote speakers in Istanbul.

This year, at the 7th edition of Global HR Summit, under the theme “People, Technology, and the New Era of Work,” we will explore how artificial intelligence, digital transformation, and evolving business models can be harnessed through a human-centered lens to create sustainable success for organizations and society alike.

Throughout the Summit, a wide range of critical topics will be addressed—from leadership in the age of AI and next-generation talent strategies to the future of organizational design and the evolution of employee experience. Alongside our main-stage sessions, participants will benefit from immersive Masterclasses, practical Workshops, and exclusive networking opportunities designed to deliver not only fresh perspectives but also actionable insights and meaningful professional connections.

Our distinguished speakers, representing diverse industries and regions across the globe, will share cutting-edge research, real-world case studies, and inspiring success stories that illuminate the future of human resources and leadership. Together, we will examine, challenge, and shape the future of work in an increasingly interconnected world.

We take great pride in welcoming a growing international community to Istanbul each year. The strong participation of professionals from Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia continues to strengthen Global HR Summit’s position as more than a conference—it is a global platform for knowledge exchange, collaboration, and transformative dialogue.

It is our sincere hope that every idea shared, every experience exchanged, and every connection established at Global HR Summit 2027 will inspire organizations to become stronger, leaders to become more visionary, and workplaces to become more human-centered.

We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to all of our speakers, sponsors, partners, and participants who have supported us throughout this journey and continue to contribute to the success of this global gathering.

On behalf of KREA HR, the team responsible for developing the Summit’s original content; KREA M.I.C.E., the organization behind this world-class event; and KREA Digital, which powers our digital platforms and experiences, we thank you sincerely for your trust, support, and partnership.

As always, our commitment is to bring you the most valuable ideas, insights, and experiences from around the world. Together, we will continue shaping the future of work.

We look forward to seeing you again on 11–12 May 2027 at Mandarin Oriental Bosphorus, Istanbul.

Warm regards,

Seda Mızraklı Ferik
