Event Details
Growing companies are always looking for the right people to help them scale, and sometimes the best candidate happens to live somewhere you have never hired before. What sounds straightforward quickly becomes complicated. Entity questions, compliance requirements, internal stakeholders with different priorities and a candidate who is not going to wait around while you figure it out.
Join an intimate group of HR, Finance and People Ops leaders for an exclusive dinner at 25 Lusk in San Francisco for a candid, off-the-record conversation about what actually happens when a growing company wants to hire someone in a country where they have no existing infrastructure. No slides, no pitch, just a small group talking honestly about what is working, what is not, and what they wish they had known sooner.

Agenda
What's The Agenda?
This exclusive dinner brings together HR, Finance and People Ops leaders navigating the realities of international hiring across new markets and unfamiliar jurisdictions. In a relaxed and confidential setting, you will connect with peers over a multi-course dinner at 25 Lusk in San Francisco to share honest experiences and practical perspectives on how to move quickly and confidently when the business wants to hire somewhere new.
We will explore what typically triggers international hiring, where the first internal hurdles tend to appear, and how organisations are balancing speed with compliance when the pressure to move fast is real.
Key discussion topics will include:
What Triggers It
What usually kicks off international hiring at your company, a deliberate growth plan, or a specific candidate who happens to live somewhere else?
The First Internal Hurdle
What tends to be the first obstacle internally when someone wants to hire in a new country, and who needs to be in the room to unblock it?
EOR vs Your Own Entity
When does an Employer of Record make more sense than setting up a local entity, and how do organisations typically make that call?
What You Wish You Had Known
What do you wish your company had understood before making its first international hire, and what would you tell someone about to do it for the first time?
Speed vs Compliance
How do you balance the business's desire to move quickly with the compliance requirements that come with hiring across borders?
This dinner is a chance to connect with like-minded leaders, compare notes on what is working, and leave with practical perspectives to bring back to your team, all in the distinctive surroundings of one of San Francisco's most celebrated dining destinations.
