This new-age niche media platform is consumed by over 5,00,000 HR and talent professionals across India, Southeast Asia, and Australia/New Zealand, and supports them in redefining talent management and work culture initiatives during this transformative shift. Now, it extends its leadership insights on industry trends, latest technologies and innovations, research studies, as well as tools and resources to help HR and talent leaders in the Middle East region shape the future of work.

The shift - fuelled by economic diversification and rapid technological advancements - is reshaping perspectives on employment. Additionally, emerging trends such as the AI revolution, automation technologies, the skills gap, evolving work arrangements, employee well-being, and data-driven decision-making are prompting HR and talent professionals in the region to adopt proactive strategies to stay ahead.
