Be sure not to miss out on Africa’s largest virtual gathering of HR professionals.

With more than 3,000 people already registered, Wednesday 14 October will see HR professionals flock to the virtual launch of the HR Indaba Network. HR Indaba Africa, the continent’s biggest and best HR event, has reinvented itself as the HR Indaba Network, a true community platform that will be available throughout the year.

The HR Indaba Network launch is a virtual conference and expo that will bring together thousands of HR professionals interested in accelerating their knowledge, network and career.

The launch boasts 10 Impact Sessions with world-class speakers, live engagement, and a complete overview of the most important tools and services for HR teams at the spectacular expo. In addition to finding out about the latest in HR tools and services, attendees will hear from top HR leaders who will share their experiences on how the Covid-19 has impacted organisation managing remote workforces, safety culture, and reveal their plans for returning to the office.

“The relaunch of the HR Indaba has made it possible to deliver a new kind of community interaction – one that keeps the community active and engaged all year round,” says Joël Roerig, the managing director of CHRO South Africa, which organises the HR Indaba. “The ongoing nature of the HR Indaba Network means that the interactions between partners, community members and industry experts will have a sustained impact, even if the popular face-to-face conference has to skip a year.”

Through a unique collaboration with the online conference virtuosos from Vfairs, the full-day event will also offer a gamified experience with exciting scavenger hunts and incredible prizes – boosting attendees’ overall learning experience.

Attendees will, for instance, be able to earn points for attending the live Impact Sessions, watching a demo at an exhibition stand or downloading a playbook, while a leaderboard will provide a live tally of the highest scorers who will walk away with fantastic cash prizes. The top three will receive an exclusive invitation to the CHRO Awards in November.

All you have to do to attend this one-of-a-kind event is register here.
