The Wales HR Network is developed and partnered by Acorn by Synergie and Darwin Gray, with the aim to bring together HR professionals to build your networks and empower you with knowledge on the latest hot topics and important updates.
The Wales HR Network was a platform created to bring together HR professionals to share best practice and knowledge, introducing expert speakers on hot topics and important updates.
Developed and partnered by Acorn by Synergie and Darwin Gray in 2017 saw the launch of the Wales HR Awards – the first of its kind to celebrate the HR profession and those in it in Wales.
The Pandemic, as with many things, changed the way the network worked. We provided a number of online events, including virtual expert sessions and gradually re-introduced in-person events post-Covid but found that the demand had changed.
We then brought back the successful Wales HR Awards for a fourth year (after a break during Covid) in 2022.
We delivered the first Future of Work conference in 2023 in Cardiff, with an incredible line-up of experts across topical subjects on the future of work, from diversity to the four-day working week.
After a period of reflection on what the network provides and the needs of HR professionals in Wales, we are now relaunching the refreshed Wales HR Network, with the focus and dedication of delivering high-quality conferences in different regions of Wales.
