DISRUPT is an information exchange designed to energise, inform and empower executives, business leaders, and people in the HR field.
Are you tired of the same old approach to Human Resources? Are you ready to start talking about talent in a whole new way? DisruptHR is for you!
This will be unlike other HR event in Cambridge.
DisruptHR is built on the belief that how we’ve approached people and talent in the past won’t be the best way to approach them in the future. DisruptHR is founded on the idea that ALL business leaders (and that includes you, HR!) need to be ready to take some risks, to stir the pot…in short, to DISRUPT.
After the success of London, Katrina Collier is expanding the disruption!
Fun, fast, fabulous!
Join us for lively summits packed full of spirited, focused presentations by local professionals who will share their disruptive ideas on how to move our collective thinking forward when it comes to talent. We're taking the brilliance of TED Talks, adding a pinch of energy from Ignite events, finishing it with a dash of "talent" and giving each speaker 5 minutes to blow your mind on topics relevant to the human experience in the workplace!
No, You don't have to be in HR to attend nor to submit to speak. In fact, Disrupt talks have been given and attended by C-Suite Leaders, Technologists, Restauranteurs, Students, Politicians...and, yes, even a few HR Professionals.
To get a feel for it, check out the videos from previous DisruptHR London events and be sure to like this page to hear about new Cambridge events.

A day ahead with Inspire 2 Ignite CIC x Moss UK x Zund UK to work on our first retail product with a selected crew from our community, is going to be special today. 😁
Happy hump day
We won tickets to the Olympics 😍
After being nominated for Social Enterprise of the Year at the Barclays UK Entrepreneurial Awards, Alex Hughes and I had a chance to celebrate the impact Inspire 2 Ignite CIC has had over the last 2 years in the capital.
There, we got to put our names in a hat…🎩
Turns out that hat included tickets to the Olympics in Paris and hospitality for 2 days…
AND WE WON! 😎
I believe the energy you put out in the world will repay you in some-way later in life.
I hope this is a sign of more amazing opportunities to come 🙌
Looking forward to soaking up the energy from the crowds and inspiration from the incredible atheletes we get to see later!
A massive thank you to Matthew Lawley for the nomination and the incredible hospitality team!
