REBA Future Forum 2025

Empowering reward and benefit leaders for 2026 and beyond

Smarter Benefits, Stronger Business

The future of work is evolving fast, with digital technology paving the way for a more data-driven approach to designing benefits strategy. AI revelations are becoming a game changer for engagement, communication and personalisation. Meanwhile, there is a wave of incoming legislation and regulation affecting employment and financial benefits such as pensions and pay.

The REBA Future Forum, to be held in London on 20 November 2025, is designed to help you navigate this shifting landscape and harness it to drive greater effectiveness and ultimately business performance - through innovative thought leadership and emerging practical, actionable solutions.

Join fellow reward & benefits leaders at REBA's annual strategic planning conference and exhibition
