HRSE KSA 2026 — HR Summit & Expo
About the event
The HRSE KSA 2026 HR Summit & Expo takes place at The Arena, Riyadh on 1-2 September 2026, preceded by certified workshops on 30-31 August. It is the Kingdom's leading gathering of HR leaders, bringing together 4,500+ professionals and 120+ speakers across four dedicated content stages. This premier event is a must-attend for HR practitioners, decision-makers, and business leaders seeking to stay ahead in a rapidly evolving labour market.
HRSE sessions address Saudi labour-market priorities — from Saudisation and skills localisation to AI enablement in HR, leadership development, and large-scale organisational transformation. The event includes an invite-only HR Leaders' forum and certified workshops from Harvard, CIPD, and the Informa Connect Academy. These workshops provide internationally recognised credentials, enhancing professional credibility and career progression. Topics typically covered include talent acquisition strategies, employee experience design, performance management, and digital HR transformation, all tailored to the Saudi context.
The co-located exhibition features HR technology providers and solution partners, alongside the HRSE KSA Awards recognising the organisations and leaders shaping Saudi workplaces. Organized by Informa Connect, the event aligns directly with Saudi Vision 2030 by supporting workforce nationalisation, upskilling initiatives, and the development of a knowledge-based economy. Attendees will gain actionable insights into implementing Saudisation programmes, leveraging AI for HR efficiency, and fostering leadership pipelines. They will also network with peers facing similar challenges, access cutting-edge HR tools, and benchmark their practices against industry leaders. Whether you are an HR manager, CHRO, or business owner, HRSE KSA 2026 equips you with the strategies and connections to drive organisational success in the Kingdom's dynamic labour landscape.
