Winning new RPO business today requires more than great recruiting, it requires technology that helps providers solve the business challenges keeping their clients awake at night.
On August 19 and September 23, RPOA's Technology and Innovation Committee will host a special two-part virtual event. The series explores how RPOA's vetted technology partners are helping leading RPO providers differentiate their services, strengthen client relationships, and retain long-term partnerships through practical innovation and measurable business outcomes.
Drawing on data from the 2026 RPO Buyer Trends study, the series will examine how technology has become a competitive differentiator throughout the client lifecycle, from winning new business to improving delivery, managing emerging risks, and expanding strategic value.
Rather than focusing on technology for technology's sake, each session will highlight real-world solutions that enable RPO providers to address evolving employer expectations around AI, automation, candidate integrity, cybersecurity, skills-based hiring, and strategic workforce consulting.
Each session will feature 3 to 4 RPOA Technology Partners who will demonstrate how their solutions help providers create stronger business cases, deepen client engagement, and position themselves for long-term growth in an increasingly competitive marketplace.
