The Wired65 Human Capital Institute Regional Summit will bring the Human Capital Development community of the 26-county Indiana and Kentucky region together on an unprecedented scale.

For the first time in the region’s history, the human capital development community will look at the workforce challenges we face as 26-county regional economy and discuss how to meet those challenges as a region.

Event Overview

At the summit, you will learn about the transformation at Fort Knox – A transformation brought about by the Army’s Human Resource Center of Excellence being established there – and the effects this transformation may have on area employers and human capital development professionals. With every challenge comes opportunity. We’ll explore how can we leverage the changes at Fort Knox to become a magnet for knowledge-based organizations, including those that provide ancillary services to the Army’s Recruiting, Market Research and Human Resource communities.

* The Regional Picture – Challenges, Opportunities & Best Practices
