Over the course of a day, topics such as responsible artificial intelligence, biometrics, leadership, talent attraction and development, organizational well-being, culture, human behaviour and the impact of technology on people and organizations will be discussed.

Confirmed speakers include Steven Bartlett, founder of Steven.com and host of The Diary of a CEO podcast; Adam Hickman, VP of Employee Development, Talent Management and HRIS at The Walt Disney Company; Camille Phillips, Global Head of Employer Branding at Meta; Dr Miriah Steiger, Global Head of Psychological Health & Wellbeing at TikTok; Mariana van Zeller, journalist with multiple Emmy Awards and Peabody Award; and Reha Jhunjhunwala, Senior Director of Digital Health Products at WHOOP.

Under this partnership, 500 places were reserved for students, teachers, researchers and alumni of the Polytechnic Institute of Porto. Participation is free, but capacity is limited, so it will be convenient to book a seat in advance via the AMP dedicated page: HC Ext With AMP.
