From Insights to Intelligence

Built on insights from 1.77M employees, the session shows how employee experience data and segmentation reveal how different groups of employees experience IT differently — and what to do about it. Featuring real stories from Nestlé and GEA, it demonstrates how putting people first turns IT into a true driver of business value.

DEXellence: People, process, tech (in that order!)

In this session, we explore the shift toward Digital Employee Experience (DEX) and why understanding employee experience is becoming critical for modern IT. We highlight how the Nexthink and HappySignals partnership brings together experience and operational data to give IT a complete, actionable view of how technology impacts people.

Intelligence

In this segment, we introduce Ask HappySignals, the new “fifth pillar” of Experience Intelligence — designed to turn complex experience data into instant, actionable answers. It shows how teams can move faster by simply asking questions in plain language, unlocking insights across experience, employee, and technology data without needing deep expertise.

    Keynote: From Insights to Intelligence

    This keynote, led by HappySignals' CEO Sami Kallio, opens the ITXM Summit London with a clear message: it’s time to move beyond reports, gut feelings, and reactive decisions.

    Through real-world perspectives, customer stories, and live on-stage moments, the keynote explores how experience data, people insights, and technology signals come together to reveal where employees are struggling, why it’s happening, and what to do next — without adding complexity.

    The session builds toward a major platform unveil that marks a shift from traditional experience measurement to something far more powerful, and practical.

    A must-see opening for anyone ready to stop guessing and start knowing.
