Global expert in workplace wellbeing to lead the international impact strategy and ambassador programme of Europe’s largest Human Sustainability conference
Happiness Camp, Europe’s leading conference dedicated to human sustainability and the future of work, officially announces its return in 2026 and introduces its new Director of Impact & Community: Jen Fisher.
Internationally recognised as one of the foremost experts in workplace wellbeing, Jen Fisher is a strategic advisor and author of Hope Is the Strategy. In her new role, she will lead Happiness Camp’s global impact strategy, strengthen the event’s international community, and oversee the creation of transformative initiatives such as the Ambassador Programme and the Happiness Camp Awards — distinctions that will celebrate organisations redefining how they care for their people’s wellbeing.
“I’m truly excited to be joining Happiness Camp in this role,” says Jen Fisher. “Workplace wellbeing is no longer a nice-to-have; it’s a critical driver of organisational success and human prosperity. Happiness Camp is now the meeting point for the most innovative minds and visionary companies in this space, and I’m committed to amplifying its impact through strategic partnerships and meaningful community engagement.”
The 2026 edition marks a new chapter in the event’s history. Under the theme “The Reset”, Happiness Camp will bring together between 15,000 and 20,000 professionals from Europe, the United States, Brazil, and beyond on 24 September 2026, in Porto.
For one day, business leaders, HR professionals, culture experts, academics, entrepreneurs, and creators will come together to share ideas, present case studies, and explore new people-centred approaches to the future of work.
“Jen’s appointment represents a defining step in the evolution of Happiness Camp,” says António Pedro Pinto, CEO & Co-Founder of Happiness Camp. “Her expertise and strategic vision, combined with a global network of thought leaders, will elevate both the scale and impact of the event — positioning Portugal as one of the world’s leading stages for the discussion of the future of work and human sustainability.”
Before taking on this role, Jen Fisher served as Deloitte’s first Chief Wellbeing Officer in the United States. She is currently the CEO of The Wellbeing Team, host of the acclaimed WorkWell Podcast, and works with organisations around the world to design wellbeing strategies that unite business performance with human flourishing.
