THE PEOPLE ECONOMY
For twenty-five years, the Leadership & HR Conference has been the meeting place for the executives shaping the future of work in Cyprus.
This anniversary edition marks a significant milestone, not only for IMH and PwC Cyprus, but for the business community itself. Over the past quarter century, the nature of leadership has changed dramatically. Organisations have navigated financial crises, technological disruption, pandemics, geopolitical uncertainty and, today, the rapid emergence of Artificial Intelligence.
Yet one thing has remained constant: great organisations are built by great people.
This year’s conference celebrates those organisations that create employment, develop talent, invest in people and contribute to Cyprus’ economic and social prosperity.
For the first time, IMH and PwC Cyprus will present the “The People Economy Honors: Cyprus Biggest Employers Recognition and Appreciation Ceremony”, honouring the companies whose people power the Cypriot economy and recognising the CEOs whose leadership has created thousands of careers.
Alongside this special celebration, some of Cyprus’ leading CEOs will come together in exclusive discussions exploring the future of leadership, organisational culture, talent, and the changing relationship between people, technology and business. The opportunity is bigger than celebrating 25 years. It is an opportunity to celebrate the companies that employ Cyprus. In a period where everyone talks about AI, automation and productivity, we should remind the market that people remain the country’s greatest competitive advantage.
The People Economy Honors Presented by IMH and PwC Cyprus
Biggest Employers Recognition and Appreciation Ceremony
The strength of every economy is measured not only by its GDP, but by the opportunities it creates for its people. Across Cyprus, a select group of organisations employs tens of thousands of people, develops talent, invests in future generations and contributes significantly to the country’s economic prosperity and social wellbeing.
As part of the 25th Leadership & HR Conference, IMH and PwC Cyprus proudly present the Cyprus Biggest Employers Recognition, honoring the organisations, and expressing their appreciation to the leaders behind them, that have made an exceptional contribution to employment, people development and the long-term growth of Cyprus.
