About this Event

​👥 September Edition — Headcount Planning in the Age of AI @ Founders & Friends Berlin

​For years, headcount planning started with a simple question: how many people do we need?

​But when AI agents, automation, freelancers, and external experts can all contribute to a company’s capacity, headcount alone doesn’t tell the whole story anymore.

​This September, we’re exploring what workforce planning actually looks like in the age of AI — and how founders and people leaders should rethink teams, productivity, skills, and growth.

👉 What to expect

  • ​Is headcount still the right metric for scaling?
  • ​How AI is changing roles, team structures, and hiring decisions
  • ​What new KPIs should companies consider?
  • ​The HR & AI tools teams are actually experimenting with
  • ​The hidden human workload behind implementing AI
  • ​What founders and HR leaders are most concerned about heading into 2027

​And since it’s September in Berlin, expect a little Oktoberfest spirit alongside the conversations. 🍻🥨

​🎟 Your ticket includes

  • ​Food & drinks
  • ​Panel discussion & workshop
  • ​Access to founders, operators & people leaders
  • ​High-quality networking with the Berlin community

If headcount is no longer the whole picture, what should we be planning instead?

​🩵 Let’s figure it out together.
