Booth S46 was abuzz with conversations as the ShieldHub team met with industry leaders and innovators at the groundbreaking HR event.
Last week, the ShieldHub team attended the record-breaking UNLEASH America 2023 in Las Vegas. Running booth S46, our team engaged in numerous insightful conversations with innovators in the HR space. This year’s event saw an unprecedented 50% increase in sponsors and exhibitors, and a 30% increase in preregistrations compared to 2022. With over 220 speakers, attendees from more than 50 countries, and a focus on the future of HR, the atmosphere was electric.
One of the highlights of the event was the insightful keynote delivered by Gary Bolles, discussing the ‘Great Reset’ and the importance of equipping employees with the right skillsets, toolsets, and mindsets to thrive in a constantly evolving world. Another significant topic addressed at the conference was the crucial role of purpose in organizations, as highlighted by Guild’s Chief People and Purpose Officer, Dean Carter.
The event also provided a platform for startups to showcase their disruptive ideas, with more than 60 startups participating this year. The UNLEASH Startup competition provided these innovative companies with a chance to pitch their products and visions to an expert panel of judges for a chance to win prizes valued at $50,000.
UNLEASH America 2023 also introduced its first-ever formal pre-events, which took place on April 25th. These pre-events included the Vendor Summit, HR Tech & Transformation Summit, Talent Acquisition Summit, and the Skills Strategy Bootcamp with The Josh Bersin Company.
The ShieldHub team was thrilled to be part of this incredible event, and we are proud to have connected with so many inspiring professionals in the HR space. As we continue to innovate and develop our own products and services, we will undoubtedly apply the knowledge and insights gained from UNLEASH America 2023.
We look forward to attending future UNLEASH events and are excited about the future of HR, technology, and innovation. Here’s to the continued growth of the industry, and to the connections we made at UNLEASH America 2023!
