2025 IBIS Academy took place May 19-23 in Málaga, Spain. As the premier event for multinational benefits, HR and mobility professionals, this year’s event offered an opportunity for delegates to learn from industry leaders while fostering a global community of excellence and knowledge.

Coming off a successful return to in-person IBIS Academy last year in Geneva, IBIS Academy 2024 brought together thought leaders and industry experts to have thought-provoking, cutting-edge and interactive discussions and programming, on the stunning Adriatic Sea in Dubrovnik, Croatia!

Gallagher brought together thought leaders from all over the world for IBIS Academy 2023 in Geneva, Switzerland, the first time IBIS has been in person since 2019. The theme of the conference was "Connect. Empower. Advance." Attendees were able to participate in numerous educational sessions and networking opportunities with global benefits, global mobility and HR professionals in the Global Benefits sector.

Because we know that staying informed can be a daunting task, especially on a global scale, the goal of this webinar was reconnecting with professionals to collectively strengthen engagement in an evolving world. Topics covered:

• Global Trends — from the impact of 2021 to the expectations for 2022
• European Workforce Awareness — the influence that political reforms, Brexit and COVID have had on retaining and attracting talent
• Global Compensation Challenges — how embracing a virtual workforce reshaped global compensation

VIEW SESSION

Employment is no longer just a transaction — now it must go beyond the paystub. Both the employee and employer are asking: What's in it for me? When you both decide the answer to that question, everyone benefits. More retention. More productivity. More loyalty. In this war for talent, employee experience (EX) needs to be top of mind for every organization.

This webinar reveals insights about the most important trends shaping EX, and what your competitors and most progressive companies are doing to evolve.

Leave with practical ideas to start a plan with actionable steps on how to advance the employee experience — ultimately reaching your organization's goals.

VIEW SESSION

Organizations are finding new ways to adapt and transform as the "new normal" of constant change continues to evolve. The connection between employee wellbeing and organizational wellbeing for global employees has never been more apparent — or more important.

During this virtual IBIS Academy, CISCO, Micron Technology and Workday officials talk about embracing mental health as part of their organizational wellbeing strategy. Partners and employers from around the world at International SOS, The Ford Motor Company, Littler Mendelson LLC, Cigna International and more discuss how they strategize for their return to travel. Over the course of four days, IBIS Academy covers everything from leaves and Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG), to diversity and equity so that you can be at the forefront of your daily organizational discussions.
