OPEN CONFERENCE

Driving Positive Change Through Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

Launched in 2016, OPEN Conference is an annual international conference organised by WeAreOpen to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion in the workplace and beyond. With the Open Conference, we aspire to build a community of business decision-makers, experts, and organisations from Europe who are conscious of their current and future impact on diversity and inclusion, both within their organisations and in society at large.

At OPEN Conference, we offer tangible and specific ideas, and inspiring case studies for those who are at the beginning of their journey; and for those who have already gone through positive changes, the possibility of sharing their knowledge with others.

OPEN Conference was nominated for the prestigious Highlights of Hungary Award in 2020.
At OPEN Conference we feature speakers from dozens of countries representing global companies, NGOs, embassies, and others. We host business leaders and decision makers from global companies such as The Coca-Cola Company, Microsoft, Google, Citi, Morgan Stanley, Exxon Mobil, Viacom CBS, and many more. The next OPEN Conference will be held in May 2025 in Budapest. Visit the conference website to learn about speaker opportunities, early bird tickets, and best deals!

TESTIMONIALS

Hear from our Community Members

Prezi coded diversity in from the beginning, as being inclusive is not just the morally right thing to do but it has a lot of benefits. You think more creatively, you see things from varied perspectives. Companies with higher levels of diversity achieve better financial returns than the industry median.

As the maker of products used by billions of people every day, we see DEI as a core responsibility. To deliver, we're focused on the areas where we can have the greatest impact: building belonging at work, in our products, and in society. A world where everyone belongs is one we can only build together. We are grateful for what we've learned from our partners, and hopeful that in sharing it, we can help others accelerate their progress as well.

WeAreOpen was a game changer for us to fully and publicly embrace D&I because it opened a door for us to get better. To set standards and to invite our team to hold the management and their colleagues responsible to stay true to our values. Sometimes it’s hard because some issues are complex and just hard to deal with overall. But the very conversations, the debate, thinking together makes it worth the while.
