CYGMA Talents Meetup
CYGMA is bringing together HR professionals, studio leaders and people working with talent in Cyprus for an evening focused on some of the most pressing workforce topics for the industry.
We’ll talk about what is changing right now — from the practical implications of BCS 30/70 requirements for companies in Cyprus to internships and junior talent in the age of AI.
The evening will combine an expert talk, open roundtable discussions and plenty of time to meet and exchange experiences with other people facing the same challenges.
