Why this room is different
- The stage is earned with evidence. Speakers are chosen on a public rubric. Nobody pays to speak, and sponsors cannot buy a keynote.
- Real cases, not hype. What shipped, what broke, what it cost and what changed.
- Everyone at one table. The engineer who ships the agent. The manager who owns the pilot. The nurse whose rota it writes.
- Your details stay yours. A booth visit shares nothing. Sponsors hear from you only if you ask them to.
Four ways in
- Attend · Free. Every seat is open.
- Speak · Show us what really happened. Applications close 28 October.
- Exhibit or hire · Startup Expo and Career Expo floors open mid-November. Booths from free.
- Sponsor · Year one. Every sponsor is a founding sponsor. Four tiers from $2K to $35K.
Why 10 December? It is Human Rights Day. In 1948, Article 23 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights named the right to work, to free choice of employment and to just and favourable conditions of work. With agents in the room, we decide what those words mean now.
10 December. Free. Save your seat.

FAQ
Is it really free?
Yes. Registering and watching live are free, with no seat limit. We plan to publish the recordings and the practical resources from each track for free after the event.
Which ticket should I choose?
Most people take the Free Seat. Hiring managers and recruiters take the Employer and Recruiter Seat. Students and career changers have their own free seat. Want a booth? Startup Expo Booth, Career Expo Booth, or the free Mission Booth for student, nonprofit, public-sector, research and non-US teams.
What time is it where I am?
8am to 5pm in New York (ET), which is 13:00 to 22:00 UTC. That is 18:30 in India and 21:00 in Singapore. In Sydney the day starts at midnight on 11 December.
Do I have to stay all day?
No. Come for one block or stay all day. Mornings cover the work itself (Re.Build, Re.Run, Re.Lead, Re.Govern). Afternoons cover jobs, skills and pay (Re.Skill, Re.Hire, Re.Direct, Re.Earn).
Will there be recordings?
That is the plan: recordings and resources published free after the event. Release dates are published with the confirmed programme. An APAC rebroadcast is being arranged and will always be labelled as a rebroadcast.
Who speaks, and can I apply?
People with firsthand experience: builders, operators, managers, researchers, frontline workers and organisers. Every application is scored on the same public rubric. Applications close 28 October, and every applicant hears back with written feedback within 21 days.
Can a sponsor buy a keynote or a talk?
No. Editorial sessions are selected on the public rubric. Sponsor labs and demos are labelled as sponsored and kept separate from editorial sessions.
What does a booth cost?
The Mission Booth is free for student, nonprofit, public-sector, research and non-US teams. Startup Expo booths are $500 and Career Expo booths $1,500 at the founding price until 13 November. Sponsor tiers run from $2K to $35K.
Which of my details do sponsors and exhibitors get?
None by default. Visiting a booth shares nothing. A sponsor or exhibitor only receives your details if you make a separate request naming them. Your email is never sold or rented.
Why 10 December?
It is Human Rights Day, the anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted in 1948. Article 23 covers the right to work, free choice of employment and just and favourable conditions of work. Re.Imagine.Work is independent and not affiliated with or endorsed by the United Nations.
