Overview

Gartner ReimagineHR EMEA, represented by the specified Gartner HR Symposium/Xpo UK page, is a London-based Gartner conference offering for human-resources executives and practitioners. It is known for research-led sessions, peer discussions, analyst content, networking and an exhibition involving HR technology and services providers.

The offering sits within Gartner’s broader research, advisory and events business rather than operating as an independent HR technology or learning-product company. The 2025 program covered workforce performance, HR technology priorities, talent strategy and organizational culture, with the event positioned as a professional forum for HR leadership rather than a standalone software product.

History

Gartner HR Symposium/Xpo is a Gartner conference series focused on senior human-resources leaders. The specific EMEA United Kingdom edition has operated as a London event and has presented programming on HR technology, talent strategy, workforce performance and organizational culture. Gartner was founded in 1979 by Gideon Gartner and developed from an information-technology research firm into a public company providing research, advisory, consulting and events. The Gartner HR Symposium/Xpo brand is an ongoing event offering rather than a separately incorporated company.

Reputation

Gartner’s HR events are generally regarded by HR professionals as structured forums for analyst perspectives, peer networking and exposure to technology vendors. The event is notable for its concentration of senior HR attendees and research-oriented agenda. Common limitations include the cost of attendance, the broad and sometimes vendor-influenced conference format, and the fact that the event is more useful for strategic context and networking than for hands-on product training.
