Assessio exists because humans cannot make completely objective decisions – in recruitment processes, we can be our own worst enemy. 

Today, your chances of getting a job are higher if you are European, tall, look healthy and do not have children. We want to change that. 

Assessio is a SaaS company specialising in strategic HR and developing tests and tools in occupational psychology. Our tools can help organisations predict who has the best potential to succeed in a role, find future leaders within the organisation, identify toxic behaviours in leadership, and match candidates to the organisational culture through values. 

We provide our customers with data-driven insights about both current and potential employees. By making decisions based on reliable data rather than gut feeling, we can discover the potential that exists and ensure that no talent goes to waste.

**Opening Keynote: Build the Workforce of Tomorrow** HR Tech Summit 2026 | 8 min

The HR Tech Summit 2026 kicked off with a challenge from Assessio CEO Mikkel Lundø: stop optimising yesterday's processes and start building tomorrow's workforce with clear intent. In this opening keynote, Mikkel sets the tone for the full event — making the case for why HR is no longer a support function reacting to change, but an architect of how organisations operate and what they will become.

You'll take away:

*   Why speed, fairness, and human judgment are no longer trade-offs you have to accept
*   How AI and science-backed data work together to drive better decisions across the employee lifecycle
*   One question to hold in mind all day: "Are we still optimising yesterday's processes, or are we actually building tomorrow's workforce?"
