“It has been my pleasure to invite leaders for the 10th edition of People Matters TechHR India to reflect upon the art of the possible, as we design for the unconventional times, to step into the future and act decisively and courageously to look beyond the exigencies of our present times. For us, the journey began 14 years ago to rejuvenate, reflect and discover groundbreaking strategies, trends and technological advancement with our community to design a new narrative on what’s possible on the people and work front,” said Ester Martinez, Founder, CEO, and Editor-in-Chief of People Matters.
”I thoroughly enjoyed a stimulating conversation with Ester Martinez at the People Matters TechHR Conference in Gurgaon. It was an overflowing hall, with dozens of people standing in the aisles,” shared Dr. Shashi Tharoor- Author, Politician & Former International Civil Servant.
“No one doubts that people matter even more in a high tech world. This TechHR conference shared remarkable insights about how HR can deliver value to all stakeholders inside (employees) and outside (customers, investors, and communities). HR is no longer about “HR”, but about creating value for stakeholders through human capability,” shared Dave Ulrich on the impact of TechHR 2023.
