AI is transferring HR

Experience what works.

AI is moving from possibility to practice.
 

For business & HR leaders, the opportunity is to understand where AI can create real value, how work and talent practices need to be redesigned, and how to move from experimentation to impactful implementation.
 

SHRM MENA Annual Conference & Expo 2026 brings this opportunity to life through the Regions' First HR + AI Lab, a large-scale executive experience focused on real-world applications across HR, talent and work.
