The overview
The standard conference is dead. This is what replaced it.
Forget theatre-style seating and people talking at you for hours. We have thrown a grenade into the tired old event format and built something that will genuinely change the way you think about industry days.
Produced by RecConnect, the acclaimed recruitment and leadership event organisers, CONNECTED fuses insight, innovation, connection and entertainment into one immersive experience designed to inspire and to set recruiter pulses racing.
Held at BOX, a genuinely iconic London venue, the day will energise, inspire and unite. It rewards curiosity, fuels conversation and brings the power of creative thinking to life, pushing you well beyond what you thought possible.
You will not have attended a recruitment event like this before. Unless, of course, you were with us in 2025.
