The Institute of EI will be at HRFest Australia on 18 November 2026 at the Timber Yard in Melbourne, and we can’t wait to be part of it.

HRFutureFest Australia is the bold new evolution of three of the country’s most respected HR events — HR Summit Melbourne, HR Summit Brisbane, and HR Tech Summit Australia — bringing it all together in one dynamic, future-focused experience with multiple themed stages, hands-on activities, and real-world solutions that span the full HR spectrum.

HRFest Australia is where bold ideas meet real-world impact — a high-energy, immersive event built for Australia’s forward-thinking HR professionals and business leaders who are ready to shape the future of work. That’s a description that resonates with everything the Institute of EI stands for. The future of work is human. And the humans who will lead it best are the ones who understand themselves and others most deeply.

If you’re attending, come and find us. We’d love to talk about what emotional intelligence education could mean for you, your team, and your organisation.

Date: 18 November 2026 Venue: Timber Yard, Melbourne
