RT 1: Mapping Moments that Matter: Where Great Mobility Experiences Begin

When a crisis disrupts your workforce, rapid decisions are critical - even when information is limited.

From geopolitical instability to natural disasters, emergency relocations can expose organizations to significant immigration, tax, payroll, and employment compliance risks.

Using real-world examples, this session will examine how cross-functional teams can work together to protect employees, mitigate risk, and build a more resilient mobility strategy.

Hosted by:
Jennifer Dyer, Global Consulting Leader, Cartus


RT 2: The Grey Zone- When Business Travel Becomes Global Mobility

An employee is travelling to Dublin for eight weeks. They don’t need a traditional relocation package, but a hotel for two months doesn’t make sense either. So who owns the journey, which policy applies, how should accommodation be sourced, and what does a good employee experience look like?

This interactive roundtable will explore the growing grey area between business travel, extended stay and global mobility.

Together, we’ll challenge traditional models, share experiences and consider how companies can create more flexible, joined-up approaches that balance employee needs, cost, compliance and procurement.

    Hosted by:
    Denise D’Mello, VP, Global Client Partnerships, Furnished Quarters


    RT 3: Think Bigger Than the Platform - Stop Comparing Like for Like and Start Asking What’s Now Possible

    Global Mobility technology is moving fast - but most conversations are still focused on improving the way things work today. This session looks further ahead.

    We’ll explore what Mobility could look like if we started again with the technology now available to us: what disappears, what becomes possible, and how the role of Mobility itself could change.

    Then we’ll make it practical. This will be an interactive, hands-on session where attendees can explore some of those ideas for themselves, challenge the thinking and help shape what comes next.

    No crystal ball. No generic AI predictions. Just an open look at where Global Mobility could go next.

    Hosted by:
    Charlie Dyer, VP Business Development, Topia
    Nike Mouyèke, Director, Industry Solutions, Topia


    RT 4: From Firefighting to Control: Managing PE Risks Effectively

    Most companies still handle permanent establishment as an annual or rolling look back, usually after someone else raised the question.

    This session reflects best practices for: Business Travel, Workation, Assignments and Global Roles. Specifically, what it takes to get to continuous control for each domain. Which signals are worth monitoring, who owns the topic internally, what gets escalated and at which point.

    Hosted by:
    Johannes Hillebrandt, CEO & Co-founder, premote


    RT 5: Before You Add AI, Fix the Plumbing Are We Using AI to Improve Mobility, Or Simply Automating the Problems We Already Have?

    AI is quickly becoming part of the Global Mobility conversation, promising greater efficiency, better insights and a more seamless employee experience. But many Mobility teams are still working with disconnected systems, manual hand-offs, spreadsheets and unclear ownership.

    This roundtable will explore what needs to be in place before AI can genuinely add value. From process design and data quality to ownership and human judgement, we will discuss where organizations are ready to automate, where the foundations still need work, and where people remain essential.

    Participants will share what is working, where the biggest challenges sit, and how Mobility teams can make sure AI simplifies the program rather than simply automating existing complexity.

    Maria Bouwsma, Director Global Mobility Advisory, Heart Relocation
    Sonal Patel, Global Mobility CoE Lead, Flutter


    RT 6: Degrees of Change: Redrawing the Early-Career Talent Map

    Early-career talent pipelines are being reshaped by shifting international student flows, changing degree requirements and AI-driven skills needs. This creates a geographically dispersed talent pool that many workforce and mobility strategies are not designed to access.

    In this interactive roundtable, participants will use live polling, labour-market analytics and immigration intelligence to examine where future talent is emerging, how graduate and skills-based pathways are evolving, and whether hiring locations remain fit for purpose.

    The discussion will explore how Global Mobility can help organisations identify, access and deploy early-career and non-degree talent while informing location strategy, workforce planning and future skills decisions.

    Hosted by:
    Harry Goldstraw, Senior Manager, Fragomen
    Kelly Hardman, Director, Fragomen
    Raj Mann, Director, Fragomen


    RT 7: Operational Excellence in Global Mobility: From Risk Management to Quality Assurance

    Organisations are dealing with multiple complexities in a fast-moving legislative and regulatory landscape, and the arising compliance challenges can feel overwhelming at times. In light of this, we will explore and debate the increasing importance of embedding robust risk management and quality assurance frameworks with your Global Mobility programme.

    How can busy programme leaders who are being asked to deliver consistent high-quality employee experience and drive operational excellence move from merely ‘managing risk’ to a more focused, proactive approach to embedded quality assurance.

    We’d be delighted if you would join us to share your experiences.

    Luke Skirrow, Associate Director, Deloitte
    Alicia Woodcraft, Partner, Deloitte


    RT 8: Without a Comparison, You Can't Judge Your Provider. How to Run a Challenger Pilot

    Slipping response times. A case stuck for a third week. Service that's excellent in one territory and mystifying in another. Nothing bad enough to trigger a review, but you can't shake the feeling the programme isn't what it was. Most mobility leads sit on that feeling because they can't evidence it.

    This session covers the alternative: running a contained pilot with a challenger provider, so you get real comparative data without disrupting the programme or ambushing your incumbent.

    We'll cover what to measure, when to tell your current provider, and how to use the results across your whole vendor mix.

    Hosted by:
    Asma Bashir, Co-founder, Centuro Global
    Gina Major Frost, Head of Client Services, Centuro Global


    RT 9: Sustainable Mobility: Shipping, Renting, or Buying Local? Making Smarter Relocation Decisions

    Discussion regarding sustainable options for international relocations with a focus on one of the most significant considerations: whether to ship employees' existing household goods, purchase new furniture upon arrival, or leverage rental and circular economy solutions.

    Join the discussion for practical guidance for mobility professionals seeking to balance relocation services support with corporate ESG objectives.

    Hosted by:
    Michele Longley, Senior Business Development Director, Santa Fe Relocation


    RT 10: Are Your Global Mobility Policies Keeping Up With How People Actually Work?

    We will examine the growing disconnect between traditional corporate relocation frameworks and the realities of today’s borderless workforce.

    While legacy mobility programs were built around long-term expat assignments, physical office transfers, and rigid corporate packages, today's employees demand flexibility- requesting border-crossing remote work, digital nomad arrangements, "work-from-anywhere" periods, and localized cross-border hires.

    Hosted by:
    Safa Hadami, Immigration Consultant, Deel
