The HR Innovator Conference: Designing Human Organization for 2027 | Capital Fort, Sofia, BG

09.00-10.00 (60mins)

🥐 Registration & Executive Networking Breakfast

A curated networking start focused on shared executive challenges: workforce risk, AI accountability, leadership bandwidth, and organisational resilience.

10.00-10.30 (30mins)

Opening Keynote - From HR Operators to Human Capital Stewards

Defining HR’s next mandate: governance, judgment, and enterprise-level accountability for people decisions in AI-powered organisations.

10.30-11.15 (45mins)

Panel - When AI Runs the Engine: What Humans Must Still Own

As AI agents take over operations, new risks emerge: blind trust, unclear escalation, and diluted accountability. This panel explores where human judgment is non-negotiable—ethics, risk, trust, and leadership credibility.

11.15-12.00 (45mins)

☕ Recharge & Coffee Break

Take a tactical pause to refuel with premium caffeine and turn your afternoon insights into immediate connections.

12.00-12.45 (45mins)

Panel - Architecting & Governing the People Stack: The 2027 Tech Consolidation

Shifting from fragmented tools to automated operational outcomes. Timed with Q4 contract renewals, this session addresses how to execute a ruthless tech stack audit—eliminating legacy SaaS fatigue, preventing uncoordinated AI "agent chaos," and deploying autonomous workflows that handle up to 40% of admin operations.

12.45-13.45 (60mins)

🍽️ Executive Networking Lunch

Cross-Industry Networking Lunch: An open forum to exchange organizational insights and build relationships beyond your usual circle.

13.45-14.30 (45mins)

Panel - Designing Workforce Resilience: Organisations That Don’t Burn Out

Burnout is a design failure, not a personal one. This session explores structural levers—workload architecture, decision velocity, and talent flow—that keep enterprise performance high without constant firefighting.

14.30-14.55 (25mins)

Stand-alone - The End of HR as a Service Function: Building the People Control Tower

HR’s future role is orchestration, not service delivery. Learn how advanced organisations are redesigning HR into a strategic control tower overseeing talent, enterprise capability, and organizational health.

14.55-15.40 (45mins)

☕ Recharge & Coffee Break

A final networking and caffeine pause to transition into the evening's high-level strategy sessions.

15.40-16.05 (25mins)

Stand-alone - Retention Is a Lagging Indicator: Measuring What Actually Predicts Staying

Tracking turnover numbers means you are already too late. This session unpacks the real-time metrics that predict organizational alignment, engagement stability, and cultural gravity before talent begins to drift.

16.05-16.35 (30mins)

Fireside Chat - Board-Level HR: Presenting Human Capital as a Financial Asset

When presenting to the board, HR metrics fail if they lack commercial context. Leading CEOs and board members discuss exactly how to pitch workforce capacity, structural automation investments, and talent risk in a language that secures immediate capital and strategic buy-in.

16.35-16.55 (20mins)

Stand-alone - The 2027 People Mandate: What HR Leaders Must Say “No” To

The future belongs to HR leaders who can prioritize ruthlessly. This closing session crystallizes the decisions, operational constraints, and strategic non-negotiables HR must commit to before the next business cycle kicks off.

16.55-17.00 (5mins)

Closing Remarks - End of Day

Join us for a brief wrap-up to summarize the day's key takeaways, share final announcements, and offer a celebratory toast to our collective insights.
