One of the best ways to learn and grow in your career can be interacting with your peers and seniors. The variety of discussions that take place in conferences and the conversations that occur outside the walls of the main sessions are always the ones working professionals look for in any event. Keeping this in mind, the unconference area at People Matters TechHR conference will be providing a space and opportunity for professionals to meet and learn from each other.

The three-day conference that begins from 1st August 2018 this year has a dedicated unconference space divided into two separate areas.

What does unconference space mean exactly?

It is a collaborative learning space hosted in one of the most buzzing spaces of the conference where professionals across sectors, regions and countries can meet and learn in intimate gatherings from top speakers, exciting startups and influential tech investors.
