Future of Work Partners

APAC 2025

Future of Work APAC 2025 brings together two dynamic streams — Future of Work and Future of Learning — to explore how organisations can thrive in a rapidly evolving world of work.

Across the Future of Work track, we’ll examine how HR and business leaders are navigating transformation, embedding purpose-driven cultures, redefining employee experience, and driving performance in the age of AI, shifting workforce expectations, and new ways of working.

In parallel, the Future of Learning track spotlights how learning, talent, and leadership development professionals are reimagining capability-building at scale, embedding continuous learning cultures, and preparing people for the skills and roles of tomorrow. From L&D strategy to innovative learning technologies, the agenda is designed to equip leaders with the tools and insights to drive growth through learning.

Connect and network across the Future of Work and Future of Learning communities.
These two conference tracks offer a unique space for senior HR, talent, and L&D professionals to connect, collaborate, and co-create the future. With shared networking areas you’ll exchange ideas, build meaningful relationships, and spark new thinking across roles and disciplines.
