9th May 2025 – TALiNT Partners has today announced the finalists for the 2025 TIARA Talent Tech Star Awards, spotlighting the most exciting innovators and market leaders in HR and Recruitment technology.
“Talent Tech is not only enhancing the human element but changing the way work gets done as the transformation of HR and Recruitment accelerates in a post-AI world,” said Alex Evans, Managing Director of TALiNT Partners. “Technology is reshaping how organisations attract, manage and develop talent for new roles in a skills-led economy. This year’s finalists have demonstrated impact in helping both employers and recruiters to solve the right problems with technology, and innovation in adapting to an evolving workforce and the changing expectations of a more global pool of candidates and contractors.”
This year’s finalists span the full spectrum of talent tech, from AI-powered hiring platforms and workforce analytics to solutions supporting contractors and improving candidate experience. Collectively, they represent the sector’s most dynamic scale-ups, disruptors, and global brands.
Two new accolades have been added in 2025, including the Enterprise Solution of the Year, which recognises a solution provider that enables large employers and / or recruitment businesses to improve their talent acquisition, development and / or management capability. A new Talent Tech Hall of Fame Award honouring an influential individual who has made an outstanding contribution to the sector will be announced at the ceremony.
Shortlisted entries will now be scored and debated by an independent panel of expert judges drawn from HR, Recruitment, Investment and Procurement to identify the winners in each award category.
Winners will be announced at the TIARA Talent Tech Star Awards on Thursday 26th June at the Carlton Tower Jumeirah, London. This must-attend event will bring together the industry’s best for an unforgettable evening of celebration, networking, and inspiration.
We’re also delighted to confirm a new charity partner for this year’s awards to honour industry legend Ryan McCabe.
The Ryan McCabe Foundation was set up by his wife Roisin after he tragically passed away on 22nd June last year. The Foundation supports several charities championed by Ryan including Teenage Cancer Trust, Macmillan Cancer Support, Andy Mans Club, Eilidh’s Rainbow, and Make-A-Wish UK.
Commenting on this campaign and charity partnership, Roisin McCabe said: “Bringing people together was what Ryan loved to do. In a storm of grief and adapting to life without him, it brings so much comfort in carrying on Ryan’s legacy in doing what he did best: helping others and making a positive difference to people. I am delighted TALiNT Partners are making such a fitting tribute to Ryan in supporting the Ryan McCabe Foundation, where people’s donations will go straight towards charities which make a real difference to people’s lives. I’m hugely looking forward to seeing industry peers coming together on the night of the TIARA Awards and I’m beyond grateful for TALiNT Partners support.”
