 Globalization Partners, which makes it fast and easy for companies to hire anyone, anywhere within minutes via its global employment platform, is this week hosting the world’s first and largest  global employment conference; PANGEO. 

The three-day event begins in the EMEA region, on Wednesday, October 20th. The highlight of this first day will be a Q&A session between the world-renowned entrepreneur and founder of the Virgin Group, Sir Richard Branson, and Globalization Partners founder and CEO Nicole Sahin. They will discuss thinking big, thinking global, the power of believing in your vision and yourself and how to inspire your team to do the same. 

Day two of the conference is also in the US time zone. The APAC region closes the conference,  launching at 9am Singapore Time, midday Australian Eastern Daylight Time, and 2pm New Zealand Daylight Time on October 22nd. 

Hosted as a virtual event accessible by anyone, from anywhere in the region, the APAC event will be opened by Globalization Partners General Manager of Asia-Pacific, Charles Ferguson, and followed with a keynote speech entitled: “The New War for Global Talent” from Founder and Managing Partner of FutureMap, Dr. Parag Khanna. 

“The world of work is evolving, and large-scale global events such as PANGEO are essential for helping to define new opportunities and ways to navigate the road ahead. This coming-together of influential companies and minds provides an extremely valuable opportunity to engage in a meaningful forum about the evolving and exciting future of work. I am very pleased to be a part of it, and I am looking forward to all of the inspiring revelations that come out of this year’s event,” said Dr Khanna.

This will be followed by a full day of panel discussions covering everything from future-proofing your business, to key trends shaping the future of remote work, accessing new markets, staying compliant while pursuing international growth and employee retention. 

Emerging HR technology will also be a key area of focus, and the conference will explore the ways in which it is empowering companies to grow and evolve. The panellists for the event are a confluence of the best brains in HR, technology, business and finance in the APAC region, coming together to share ideas and inspire growth and change.

About PANGEO Conference 

PANGEO derives its name from the 300-million-year-old supercontinent, Pangea, the original unified earth landmass. 100 million years later Pangea divided to form our seven modern-day continents. Today, our world is transformed — reunited once again in what we call PANGEO — a new world of opportunities without boundaries, as post-pandemic workforces move to remote and hybrid models putting the world’s workforce on one platform. Globalization Partners, the global industry leader, will share this knowledge
