Learning Conference 2025 program by Hexanova Media Group AB

The meeting place for skills development & lifelong learning

17th - 18th September 2025

Münchenbryggeriet, Stockholm

Welcome to Learning Conference 2025

We are thrilled to welcome you to the third edition of Learning Conference – the growing Scandinavian hub for lifelong learning, skills development, and future-readiness.

As technological transformation accelerates and global challenges reshape our societies and workplaces, the ability to learn, adapt, and evolve has become the new currency of competitiveness. In this context, learning is no longer a support function – it is a strategic imperative.

Over two inspiring and thought-provoking days, we will explore the forces that are redefining how we build and apply knowledge. From the latest in learning technology and human-centered design, to the dynamic interplay between artificial intelligence and human potential – and not least, the culture, leadership, and strategy that make learning stick. These themes will frame our shared journey into the future of learning.

You will meet world-leading thinkers, pioneering practitioners, and bold innovators. You will gain insights, tools, and connections that can make a real difference – for individuals, organizations, and society at large.

With Scandinavia’s learning and edtech sectors expanding rapidly, Learning Conference has established itself as a vital platform for dialogue, collaboration, and progress. Hexanova Events, the Swedish Learning Association, Promise, and the Swedish Edtech Industry are proud to host this initiative.

Thank you for being part of shaping the future of learning. The Learning Conference Team

SCALING TO ONE IN THE AGE OF SUPER-INTELLIGENCE

Technology has always reshaped how we work, but the pace of change today is unprecedented. In just a few decades, we’ve moved from the rise of the internet to cloud computing, and now to the rapid integration of AI into the workplace. But the most significant shift is still ahead—the move away from an outdated, manufacturing-era model focused on efficiency and standardization toward a new era of scalable learning, where adaptability, innovation, and personalization define success. In this session, Docebo’s Chief Learning Officer, Brandon Carson, will break down the major technological transformations that have shaped the modern workplace and explore why the future of work will be human-centered. Attendees will learn how AI transforms workflows, why companies must embrace learning as a competitive advantage, and how businesses can move from mass production to Scaling to One—creating personalized, dynamic, and people-first work environments. Join us to explore what it takes to thrive in the next evolution of work.

Brandon Carson, Chief Learning Officer, Docebo.

LEARNING IN 2049: EVOLVING MINDS IN A POST-HUMAN ERA

The future is unfolding faster than we realize. While it may still be 2025, the world has already accelerated towards 2049. The digital transformation sparked by the pandemic has led to the AI revolution, reshaping every aspect of our lives in real-time. As automation transforms millions of jobs, the need for new skills, faster learning, and innovative technologies has never been more urgent. In this thought-provoking talk, futurist Nicklas Hermansson explores the massive opportunities and challenges the AI revolution presents. AI and gamification will reshape not just how we learn, but how we work, engage, and grow. This era will demand new leaders –”Alpha Cyborgs” – who seamlessly combine technology and human skills. Nicklas shares the human superpowers necessary to thrive in this new world and discusses the strategies he has used to build teams that became the best in the world. With his extensive experience as a futurist and founder of NomoFomo, Nicklas gives a thrilling glimpse into the future of learning and human evolution. Nicklas Hermansson, Futurist, NomoFomo.

IT’S TIME TO UNLEASH OUR STRATEGIC VALUE

Most executive leaders view L&D as an overhead expense. And, they are always looking for ways to reduce these costs. This view especially impacts our profession whenever the economy faces a downturn or purveyors of new technology suggest it can replace us. As yet, we haven’t successfully answered this vital question: What can Learning and Development professionals do, that no-one else in the organization can do, to deliver measurable business impact? This session will answer this question. It will expand your vision of our role and vital importance to the success and economic survival of any organization.

NEUROSCIENCE AND LEARNING, POTENTIALLY FOCUSING

ON LEARNING AGILITY

Always changing... Are we made for that? Are we not creatures of habit? Or does it really just come down to cultivating an open mindset? During this keynote, we take a look into our learning brain. Through both everyday examples (trying out a new software tool) and spectacular cases (a violinist learning to play again after losing half her brain), we explore the power of neuroplasticity. Our brain is built to learn, solve problems, and take on challenges. However, there are some important conditions attached to this.

Using the Boost your Brain framework©, we examine what you need to enhance your learning agility.

Katelijn Nijsmans, Neuropsychologist and CEO, How’s Work.

THE LEARNING LEADER’S KEY TO DRIVING REAL IMPACT, CLOSING SKILLS GAPS AND GREATER CREDIBILITY

In this session, David James, CLO at 360Learning, shares the key mindset and operational shifts required to evolve from reactive learning delivery to a strategic business driver. Backed by insights from the 360Learning Maturity Model, we’ll pinpoint where L&D teams typically stall, what top performers do differently, and how to overcome the most common roadblocks. You’ll leave with a clearer sense of where your team stands today—and practical steps to drive measurable, strategic outcomes through learning.

David James, Chief Learning Officer at 360Learning.

FUTURE-PROOFING

THE WORKFORCE IN A SKILLS-BASED ECONOMY IN THE AGE OF AI

AI isn’t here to replace human learning; it’s here to enhance it. The focus is on how AI-driven tools can make training more immersive, adaptive, and impactful. It’s time to move beyond passive learning and emphasize real-world applications that drive measurable results. Addressing existing skills gaps is crucial, and AI can support the development of new competencies, including soft skills.

WORKSHOP: “5 MOMENTS OF NEED AS THE METHODOLOGY TO SUPPORT WORKPLACE LEARNING OR TO MAKE THE “70” IN 70-20-10 WORK”

The innovative ”5 Moments of Need” instructional design framework is dedicated to enhancing workplace learning by offering targeted support to employees precisely when they need it most: at the moment of application. It is designed to assist employees in the workflow, at their desks, at the bed of a patient in a hospital or on the factory floor, providing them with the immediate support required to accomplish a specific task. The ”5 Moments of Need” framework represents a practical strategy for improving employee performance by combining learning and performance experiences while working in the workflow. It leverages the principles of the 70-20-10 learning model to personalize training, ensuring that learning is relevant and directly applicable to the tasks employees face. This approach not only facilitates immediate job support but also fosters long-term development and knowledge retention, ultimately leading to a more skilled and efficient workforce.

Alfred Remmits, CEO of Xprtise and managing partner of the 5 Moments of Need Academy Europe.

Last year, Zebrain and Alfa Laval explored how a human-AI alliance – combining coaching, behavioral science and automation – could unlock meaningful behavior change in leadership. This year, we’re back to share what happened next. Together, Ian Blake, Learning & Performance Specialist at Alfa Laval, and Anna Bloth Karling, Founder & CEO of Zebrain, will reveal how a validated process for behavior shift, powered by AI-enhanced coaching, has been implemented to embed learning into daily workflows, strengthen leadership, and deliver measurable results. Discover real data, real stories, and real impact – and why the fusion of AI and human insight is reshaping the future of learning and development.

– FRAMTIDENS KOMPETENSUTVECKLING OCH HUR VI MÄTER DEN

Hur skapar man verklig effekt i kompetenssatsningar – och hur vet man om det fungerar? I denna föreläsning delar Niklas Lundgren insikter från färsk rapportdata om vad svenska beslutsfattare tycker om kompetens, karriär och framtidens lärande. Samtidigt berättar Frederik Johansson om en ny standard för att mäta kvalitet och effekt av utbildning, utvecklad tillsammans med några av Sveriges största beställarorganisationer. En gemensam dragning som kombinerar inspiration, konkreta data och nya verktyg för att lyckas med kompetensutveckling i praktiken.
