“At People Matters TechHR 2022, it has been my pleasure to invite leaders to rethink what is possible; to look at our present with fresh eyes and reimagine a new future; to create, as a community together, a new narrative about how we want to rewrite the future of people and work,” said Ester Martinez, Founder, CEO, and Editor-in-Chief of People Matters.
“The confluence of ideas and looking at problems with #FreshEyes here at TechHR is great. Nature wants us to cling to old ways, but it’s important to realise that the old ways are never going to come back, at least not in the same way. TechHR is a great platform for people to come together to exchange ideas, address problems and find newer solutions,” said Holger Mueller, Vice President and Principal Analyst at Constellation Research, Inc.
Experiential Learning for Impact
Learning in the flow of work and learning by doing have emerged as the most effective ways of building skills. And so People Matters TechHR brings one a series of unique Masterclass sessions based on experiential learning. Over both days of the 2022 conference, industry experts led these special sessions, offering a fresh look at various skills. From problem–solving using the LEGO Serious Play Method, to organisational transformation through Social Presencing Theater, to a special invitation-only workshop on how to pitch their business to venture capitalists, and even an exclusive track drawn directly from People Matters’ cohort-based digital learning platform BeNext, People Matters TechHR offers the opportunity to rethink what’s possible in learning and skilling.
Unconference – Place to Brainstorm
People Matters TechHR gathers top people and work leaders from every sector of the economy, to share their experience and solutions, and brainstorm how to tackle highly topical issues. In a series of Think Tanks featuring leaders from major successful organisations in industries ranging from FMCG to F&B, essential services to finance powerhouses, TechHR 2022 surfaced discussions around contemporary work models, best practices for managing Gen Z, applications of latest technology, and even how to grow beyond the CHRO role and into a potential CEO.
People Matters Startup Program
At TechHR 2022, People Matters offered 26 startups, the unique opportunity to make their pitches in front of renowned mentors and investors such as Hidekazu Ito, Managing Director of Mynavi Solutions India and Board Member of People Matters, and Sajith Pai, Venture Capitalist at Blume Ventures. In a series of small, exclusive sessions over both days of the conference, they received intensive guidance on how to refine their presentations and hone their business plans to shine among the competition.
“Startup programme curation was fantastic. It improves from year to year, and this year I see a lot of high–quality startups which I would really want to sit across the table and chat more deeply with. Clearly, it is a testament to the work that People Matters has put into curating and sourcing startups,” said Pai.
Lucky Ali Talks About Creativity.
Celebrity singer and songwriter Lucky Ali joined the event at TechHR India 2022 to talk about his musical journey, how he unlocked his creativity to build his dream career, and shared some hacks to do the same. And to round off the evening, he held a mini-concert just for TechHR speakers and delegates. To a full house, he performed famous hits including ‘Ek Pal ka Jeena‘ from the movie Kaho na pyaar hai, ‘O Sanam‘, and ‘Tu Kaun hai‘ from the movie Bhopal Express. He even gave a special preview of his new song that will be released this week.
‘Are You In The List‘ Awards
People Matters ‘Are You In The List‘ Awards returned for its 11th year, identifying emerging HR leaders who proved themselves over 2021 by rising to the challenge of unprecedented developments and delivering on critical business priorities despite a never-ending series of obstacles. The awards are curated by discerning judges including none other than renowned business leader Shiv Shivakumar himself; Suresh Narayana, CEO of Nestle; Vikramjeet Singh, President and Chief Human Resources Officer of Bajaj Allianz General Insurance; Suchi Mukherjee, CEO of Limeroad; Aravindan Madhva Murthy, COO of ANZ; and Sandip Das, Independent Board Director & Advisor at Sterlite Technologies Limited. Amid the conference excitement, ‘Are You In The List‘ Awards showcases the leaders of the future.

Angel One’s ‘Cricket Park’ sparks strong participation, brings a generation back to the pitch
MUMBAI, India, April 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Angel One Limited, India’s intelligent investing companion and Official Associate Partner of the Tata IPL (2024–2028), recently hosted “Cricket Park”, an immersive cricket-led experience that brought alive a simple yet powerful idea – Chalo, Cricket Khelte Hai. Held at TSG Sports Arena in Mumbai, the event witnessed strong participation and high on-ground energy, bringing together around 300 attendees, including India’s top digital creators and cricket enthusiasts, to rediscover the joy of playing the game.
At a time when cricket is widely consumed but rarely played, Cricket Park tapped into a deep cultural insight, that while the love for the game remains strong, the reasons to step out and play have steadily declined. By creating the right environment and format, Angel One turned passive fandom into active participation.
Designed as more than just a tournament, Cricket Park reimagined the childhood cricket experience into a dynamic, interactive format. The experience was paired with 14 interactive cricket installations and 5 live pitches, including Khidki Tod, Zero Kaata Bhaago, Ziddi Target, Bat Pakad and Ringa Ringa Catches, each crafted to bring back the spontaneity and thrill of the game. The event followed a unique flow, with creators arriving early to engage with and take over the installations, setting the tone for the experience, while fans stepped in at sundown, with matches continuing till late.
The event also saw participation from impactful personalities, adding to the overall energy and appeal of the experience. Notable digital creators including Jake Jeakings, Vyom (vyom25), CA Deepak Bhati (cadeepakbhati), Shrishti Gosavi (nerd_in_you), and Anmol Sharma (financebyanmoll) were part of the experience, further amplifying the event both on-ground and across digital platforms. With moments crafted for shareability, Cricket Park extended well beyond the venue, resonating strongly with a wider audience online.
Assisted by Badass Media and designed by Doodle Mapuls, Cricket Park was designed as a high-energy, community-led experience that blends culture, community, and digital storytelling.
Cricket Park is rooted in Angel One’s larger philosophy of enabling action. Much like how the platform simplifies investing for a new generation, the initiative aimed to remove friction from participation, meeting people where their interest already exists and giving them a compelling reason to act. In doing so, the brand’s invitation, “Chalo, Cricket Khelte Hai,” became more than a line, it turned into a lived experience on-ground.
Zameer Kochar, Chief Marketing Officer, Angel One, said, “Cricket Park is built on a very simple insight, people don’t lack interest, they lack the right trigger to act. Whether it’s investing or something as personal as cricket, the gap often lies between intent and action. With this initiative, we wanted to create an experience that feels intuitive, inclusive, and engaging enough for people to step in and participate. The response we’ve seen has been extremely encouraging.”
With Cricket Park, Angel One has taken a step towards building a scalable, community-led property that blends culture, participation, and digital amplification and redefining how brands can create meaningful engagement beyond the screen.
