BI WORLDWIDE to deliver strategic thought leadership
As the summit’s lead sponsor, BIW EMEA will host a masterclass session and form part of an exciting panel.
Panel discussion: Rewarding What Matters – Recognition Systems for Business Velocity.
Nick Sutton, Head of Sales and Marketing, BIW EMEA, will be joining this session to explore the shift from periodic reviews to real‑time, continuous rewards, and how organisations can use recognition to incentivise innovation, internal mobility, and bold decision‑making. The session will also examine how recognition acts as a signal of culture, extending far beyond compensation to reflect what an organisation truly values.
Masterclass: Building a High‑Impact Recognition Culture – A Five‑Stage Roadmap for Forward‑Thinking Organisations
Led by Carlo Bezoari, Employee Recognition Solutions Specialist at BIW EMEA, this interactive session will introduce delegates to our newly-launched Recognition Programme Maturity Model and demonstrate with real world examples how it can be applied to help organisations embed recognition into culture, drive lasting engagement, and unlock strategic business benefits and impact.
