Learn from & connect with the world's best!
World Employer Branding Day is the world's largest gathering of leaders in employer branding and has sold out for the past five years. Founded in 2015 with a vision to advance excellence in employer branding practice, the event connects companies from around the world with the industry’s top employer branding leaders, agencies and communities in a friendly and welcoming environment for all levels.
There is no more critical function in business today than strategic employer brand leadership. As organizations face unprecedented changes, from the integration of AI and automation to evolving workforce expectations, it is attracting, engaging, and retaining the right talent that drives innovation, resilience, and sustainable growth.
Employer branding stands as a cornerstone of corporate strategy. To unlock true value for employees, customers, and shareholders, executives must embed talent strategy into the heart of their business models, leveraging employer branding as a catalyst for innovation, resilience, and global impact.
Join us at World Employer Branding Day in October 2025 in the dynamic city of Amsterdam. Network with global thought leaders and senior executives as we tackle the future of employer branding, share pioneering strategies, and define what it means to lead in a brand-first business world.
