Welcome to LEAP HR: Life Sciences Europe 2025!
The Life Science industry in Europe is experiencing a period of rapid change, and HR leaders across the continent are bearing the brunt of this transformation. With the industry heading into economic downturn, lay-offs and tightening budgets, HR departments must do more with less. In 2025, HR leaders must adapt to these changes by positioning themselves as true strategic business partners, providing solutions that impact organisational bottom lines, and stay one step ahead of future HR innovation trends.
Returning for the 7th year, LEAP HR: Life Sciences Europe will reunite 80+ senior HR leaders from Life Science organisations to discover agile strategies to empower employee engagement and boost retention to safeguard the future of your Life Science business. Over the course of three jam-packed days of content, you’ll gain actionable takeaways through case studies, structured networking, dedicated panels, roundtable discussions, speed learning, and more. With topics ranging from how HR leaders act as the strategic business partner to their organisation by developing creative L&D programmes, shifting to skill-based hiring, and improving the employee experience to enhance retention in 2025 and beyond.
