Change is the only norm for strong Employee Resource Groups. Join us for our annual ERG-Land Conference to meet top ERG Leaders from around the world and get the playbooks needed to navigate the curveballs - and opportunities - facing ERGs.
This year’s ERG-Land centers on the challenges and opportunities Verbate sees most consistently across hundreds of ERG programs, including:
At Verbate, we have the privilege of working with hundreds of ERG Programs around the world. So, we spend all day long in what we affectionately call “ERG-Land.”
As we dreamed up the space we would create with this annual conference, the name felt fitting: a place anchored in inspiration, collective energy, and community.
Our agenda will dive into the real, nuanced, sometimes-avoided conversations ERG leaders need to navigate. Expect thoughtful perspectives from industry experts and practical answers from people actually building ERG Programs.
Most conferences hope networking happens. At ERG-Land, we design for it. Curated seating, guided discussion sessions, and a format described as “the best networking I’ve ever experienced,” ensure you build genuine relationships with leaders across industries & global regions.
Take part in memorable experiences - from professional headshots to a welcome event the night before the conference - all designed to celebrate you, recharge your energy, and create lasting connections with fellow ERG champions.
Located in the heart of Detroit’s Central Business District, ERG-Land's venue sits at the top of Campus Martius Park, named the top public square in America by USA Today for three straight years.
