Change at work continues to accelerate, and leaders in talent, learning, development, and recruitment are at the forefront. Now’s the time to take action and make change work for your people.
It starts at Talent Connect Summit, the in-person event created to challenge traditional viewpoints, embrace uncertainty, and build leadership skills.
Together, we'll be inspired by provocative thought leaders and industry experts who will talk about pressing topics, workshop your critical business problems with peers to create practical solutions, and deepen your relationships with a global network of executives.

Event themes
We’ll elevate four key themes through a mix of thought-provoking keynote speakers, interactive experiences, and engaging breakout sessions.
Hiring and Attracting
Attract for today, hire for tomorrow
Talent acquisition and recruitment leaders are critical to both talent and business strategy. Join your peers from around the globe to share perspectives on leading the conversation for attracting and hiring top candidates.
Career Development
Drive continuous career development, today
Learning and talent development leaders are steering critical change as they shift from simply delivering courses to empowering meaningful careers. Discover new strategies for engaging and growing unstoppable talent.
Skills-First
Change how your teams work with a skills-first approach
Leaders will share how to create skills-first organizations — where skills help businesses become more agile and employees learn, grow, and get more out of work.
Future of HR
Embrace innovation and a changing world to unlock tomorrow’s possibilities
We'll explore a range of opportunities coming from advances in technology (like generative AI), shifts in what employees value (like flexibility and belonging), and new ways of working that leaders in talent acquisition and L&D will need to succeed.
Types of breakout sessions
There will be two types of breakout sessions allowing you to participate in peer-to-peer problem solving, and hear from industry changemakers and first-movers.

Solution Rooms: These sessions are designed to foster peer-to-peer problem solving and community building. Here, we’ll tackle challenges and face change head-on alongside peers, subject matter experts and talent practitioners.
Each Solution Room will be offered on both days - once on Tuesday and an encore session on Wednesday.
Big Ideas: Time to think BIG and dive deep with thought leaders and trailblazers into the most relevant topics, sparking inspiration and providing insights only LinkedIn can provide.
