Conference: Sept 30 - Oct 2, 2009
Expo: Sept 30 - Oct 1, 2009
McCormick Place, Chicago

In the face of a global economic crisis our 11th Annual HR Technology® Conference & Exposition in 2008 still met our record 2007 attendance of HR executives and professionals – this time from 16 countries on five continents!

We continue to be the world's best and biggest event of our kind: our success indicating the continued vitality of this industry and our market.  

Why does everyone consider us the conference to attend? First because our program is created by experts who know what's important for you to learn today in every aspect of technology for HR. And the sessions are delivered by senior executives — 50 of our 60 presenters in 2008 were VPs or higher, including 22 CEOs — from the world's leading companies.

What’s more, they presented solutions to problems you are still trying to solve, with their focus firmly on how to help your company make more money by wrestling business benefits out of technology.

Plus our expo is the largest in the world: 240 vendors in 2008 offering (often competing) solutions for every challenge you face in HR, many with company CEOs in the booth, not just salespeople.

You can read the opinions of various analysts who blogged about the 2008 event: Vinnie Mirchandani of Deal Architect, Jason Corsello of Knowledge Infusion, Zach Thomas of Forrester Research, Jim Holincheck of Gartner, Mark Smith of Ventana Research, and Brian Sommer of TechVentive.
