TurboHire at the ET CHRO
Annual Conclave 2025 – Kochi
Riding the Wave of Change — Together
Introduction
TurboHire is proud to be a Key Partner at the 4th Edition of the ET CHRO Annual Conclave 2025, taking place September 4–6, 2025, at Crowne Plaza, Kochi.
This premier HR leadership gathering, curated by ETHRWorld, brings together 100+ of India’s most influential CHROs for an immersive residential experience in the heart of Kerala’s serene coast — to engage, exchange, and envision the future of HR.

The Changing Tide: A New Era for CHROs
The theme for this year’s conclave — “Riding the Waves of Change” — reflects the transformational role that CHROs now play in shaping not just talent, but business itself.
As organizations navigate digital disruption, workforce evolution, and emerging technologies, CHROs are no longer limited to people strategy. They are emerging as key decision-makers at the boardroom table, steering the enterprise towards agility, resilience, and competitive advantage.
TurboHire stands firmly at the intersection of this transformation — enabling CHROs with tools, insights, and intelligence to drive hiring as a core lever of strategic success.

Thought Leadership from TurboHire
TurboHire is not just showcasing technology — we’re driving the conversation on the future of hiring.
At the CHRO Annual Conclave 2025, our CEO & Co-founder, Deepak Agrawal,
will be part of three high-impact sessions that underline the strategic role of AI in enterprise hiring:
Topic: Hiring as a Strategic Edge: Talent as the Currency of Digital Transformation
Speaker: Deepak Agrawal, CEO & Co-founder, TurboHire
In today’s enterprise landscape, AI is everywhere—but impact isn’t. This keynote cuts through the hype to focus on what truly matters: creating systemic peace in hiring amidst the noise of fragmented tools, disconnected processes, and shallow automation.
Deepak Agrawal will share a compelling perspective on why hiring needs to move beyond isolated AI features toward a more cohesive, strategic approach—where talent acquisition becomes central to business transformation. Expect real-world insights on how enterprise CHROs can use AI not just to scale faster, but to build organizational clarity, agility, and purpose.
Topic: Modern Perspectives on Empowering HR Professionals with AI Tools for Business Advantage
As AI tools flood the HR ecosystem, this panel asks a critical question: What does AI mean for the HR professional themselves?
Far from a tech showcase, this session explores how CHROs can rise above the clutter of point solutions to:
- Reclaim their role as strategic human leaders—not just tech operators
- Lead mindset shifts toward data fluency and digital confidence
- Ensure technology enhances, rather than erodes, the human connection
- Champion responsible, ethical AI adoption across the enterprise

Topic: Bringing Systemic Peace to Enterprise Hiring: Cutting Through AI’s Complexity
Format: Invite-only roundtable with 6–8 CHROs
This closed-door session is designed for candid, high-impact exchange among senior HR leaders. As AI and automation proliferate, so do questions around usability, RoI, flexibility, and fragmentation.
TurboHire will lead a focused discussion on how CHROs can:
- Move beyond the snazz and glitter of AI features
- Navigate adoption without overwhelming teams
- Evaluate true impact vs. perceived innovation
- Build unified, scalable systems that serve business complexity—not add to it
The 60-minute roundtable will be followed by an exclusive networking lunch.
