INTERNAL COMMUNICATIONS AND ENGAGEMENT LIVE 2026
PROGRAMME
We are hearing from the winners of Communicate's Internal Communications and Engagement Awards to get the low-down on work that has delivered tangible results, and pick up some tips along the way. Driving engagement at one of the world's largest retailers, Tesco's communications team has been steering employee perceptions of the brand. With fresh initiatives including an internal 'News and Views' platform and football-inspired safety campaign, the team is creating distinct new projects to ensure the brand's spirit reaches employees across regions. Join us for a conversation about creativity and why the best communications strategies never stop evolving. Rethinking retail comms
Emerging technologies have the potential to transform how employees experience corporate culture, yet few corporate events are able to successfully deliver a truly immersive, AI-led experience. Marriott International's 'Marriottopia 2024' conference was one of them. The Remarkably team behind the event takes to the stage to discuss what made it work, how immersion was brought to life and the key lessons learned for internal communications and engagement professionals. Speakers coming soon!The power of immersion
A dynamic exchange of ideas and perspectives. Engage with industry leaders and fellow attendees in interactive sessions designed to foster deep insights and meaningful conversations on all areas of internal communications.Communicate roundtable discussions
Communicate is bullish about the importance of human-led comms, but artificial intelligence is no longer just a curiosity in corporate communications departments. AI tools are now being quietly tested across internal and external channels alike. We hear from practitioners trialling these technologies to get a sense of what’s happening behind closed doors, and what the next phase of adoption will look like. We’ll be announcing more speakers soon!AI’s next chapter

Deftly deployed emotion can be the difference between a brand building trust or not. In moments of crisis, employees increasingly expect empathy, honesty and restraint instead of stoicism or spin. In this panel, corporate communications leaders reflect on whether the traditional model of leadership communication still holds today. Speakers will be announced in the coming weeks!Vulnerability matters
