Working for What's Next
The World Employment Conference 2027 gathers governments, international organisations, business leaders, and the private employment services industry to tackle the questions shaping work today: how we close skills gaps, build quality jobs, and navigate AI-driven change, together, not apart. Together with our host partner Assolavoro we are welcoming you for two days in Rome, where we'll move from insight to action with a shared set of priorities for the future of work.

WEC 2026
Last May, more than 400 delegates from 32 countries gathered in Toronto for the World Employment Conference 2026, Grow With Talent, hosted with ACSESS.
Together, we explored how people-first approaches, smart technology, and forward-looking policy can build more resilient labour markets, connecting global perspectives with a warm Canadian welcome.
Take a look back at the moments that made it memorable and join us in Rome this April as WEC turns 60.
