About

Thrive Connect is a premier event dedicated to empowering organizations to catalyze business growth through employee well-being. Serving as a platform for HR leaders, wellness professionals, and industry experts, Thrive Connect fosters a collaborative environment where innovative ideas and best practices are shared.

Despite India's global reputation for its thriving workforce, a deep-rooted burnout epidemic threatens its economic potential. While McKinsey ranks India second in employee well-being, a staggering 59% of Indian employees report experiencing burnout. This stark contrast underscores the critical gap between perceived well-being and the reality of workplace stress.

Thrive Connect aims to catalyze business growth through a focus on wellbeing. By fostering collaboration and innovation, Thrive Connect inspires organizations to cultivate healthier, happier, and more productive workforces, leading to enhanced business performance and sustainable growth.

Foster organizational growth by prioritizing employee care and well-being.
