The Only Industry-Specific Meeting Advancing HR Excellence Across Europe's Life Sciences Ecosystem
Connect AI-Powered Decision Making, Skills-Driven Workforce Strategy and New Approaches to Organisational Effectiveness To Navigate Cultural Complexities and Deliver Sustainable Business Performance Across the European Life Sciences Ecosystem Europe's life sciences sector is navigating a period of unprecedented change. Funding constraints, organisational restructuring, evolving workforce expectations, and uncertainty around AI's long-term impact are forcing HR leaders to rethink how they attract, retain, develop, and engage talent.
Returning for its 9th year, LEAP HR: Life Sciences Europe is the region’s only industry-specific forum bringing together senior HR leaders from organisations at every stage of growth. With attendees ranging from emerging biotechs preparing for commercialisation, through to global enterprises managing complex transformations, this is your unique opportunity to benchmark strategies, exchange candid lessons learned, and discover how peers are tackling the talent challenges unique to life sciences.
Through interactive discussions, benchmarking opportunities, and practical case studies, gain direct access to fresh perspectives and proven strategies from peers facing similar challenges. You’ll leave this event with not only actionable ideas for workforce planning, organisational design, and AI adoption, but also the trusted connections and ongoing support network needed to accelerate implementation and drive lasting impact within your organisation.

Biotech is a uniquely fast-moving and specialised industry - which is exactly why knowledge-sharing among peers matters so much right now.
