European organisations face pressure from every direction, including widening skills shortages, tightening EU AI Act compliance and competitors moving faster with AI than HR teams can match. Most European CHROs know where they need to go, but lack the operating model to get there; a gap that averages 12 to 18 months and compounds every quarter. Generic AI tools exacerbate the problem, delivering speed without the governance or contextual precision enterprises require. IAMPHENOM Europe exists to equip European HR leaders with the agentic AI strategies, proof points and plans to redesign how their workforce operates across talent acquisition and management.
At the in-person event, HR professionals, talent acquisition leaders, HRIT teams and C-suite executives will experience two days of immersive AI learning and networking in Paris. Attendees will gain actionable strategies from the organisations already using AI and automation to improve work operations and strengthen hiring, development and retention, while connecting with peers navigating the same challenges across Europe.

"The HR leaders shaping Europe's next decade are not asking whether to use AI, they're already figuring out how, where and how fast, knowing the window to redesign work is closing quickly," said Jonathan Dale, Vice President and General Manager, Global Marketing at Phenom. "IAMPHENOM Europe is where leaders learn to deploy AI, agents and automation to rebuild hiring, development and retention workflows for the new way of work.
