iCIMS, the enterprise talent acquisition platform, has announced it will serve as the headline sponsor for the Talent Acquisition category at Transform, taking place March 23–25 in Las Vegas. The company will use the event to showcase its newly refreshed brand identity, debut forthcoming AI adoption research developed in partnership with Aptitude Research, and demonstrate the latest capabilities within its Coalesce AI platform — all available at booth #237.
About Transform 2026: The Human + AI Equation
Transform is a premier future-of-work conference bringing together CHROs, HR leaders, technologists, investors, and entrepreneurs to explore how human-centric strategies and AI innovation are reshaping the workforce. The 2026 event is themed "The Human + AI Equation: Forging the Next Era of Work" — a framing that positions the conference squarely at the intersection where responsible AI deployment and genuine human leadership capability must coexist. iCIMS' headline sponsorship of the Talent Acquisition category reflects the company's positioning at precisely that intersection.
Panel Discussion: Building Trust in AI for Talent Acquisition
iCIMS will anchor a panel discussion on responsible AI adoption in talent acquisition on Wednesday, March 25, from 11:35 a.m. to 12:05 p.m. PT in Meursault 1 & 2. Lisa Fiondella, SVP of Data and AI at iCIMS, will join the Chief People Officer for Technology & Global Talent Development at Wayfair to explore the root causes of AI distrust in recruiting — and provide practical strategies for introducing AI with transparency, without slowing down innovation or creating unnecessary friction in the hiring process.
"AI can unlock tremendous potential in talent acquisition, but only when teams understand how it works and why it matters. Transform is the perfect stage to connect with TA leaders and demonstrate how our solutions help organizations hire smarter, build trust in AI and deliver measurable business outcomes."
— Lisa Fiondella, SVP of Data and AI, iCIMS
Three Things Attendees Can Experience at Booth #237
1. The New iCIMS Brand Identity — Live for the First Time
iCIMS recently announced a refreshed brand identity aligned with its leadership in AI-powered recruiting and hiring. Transform attendees will be among the first to see the company's modernised visual identity on full display — a public signal of the platform's evolution toward an AI-first positioning in the enterprise talent acquisition market.
2. Coalesce AI — The Unified Intelligence Layer Across the Platform
iCIMS is set to launch its latest product release at the conference — featuring powerful enhancements powered by iCIMS Coalesce AI, the unified intelligence layer embedded across the entire iCIMS platform. Coalesce AI spans four key capability areas: intelligent candidate search and match, digital assistants, autonomous agents, and iCIMS Frontline AI — combining AI automation and intelligence with the company's market-leading talent acquisition platform. iCIMS experts at booth #237 will provide custom demonstrations tailored to real-world recruiting challenges.
3. New AI Adoption Research With Aptitude Research — Launching March 23
On the opening day of Transform, iCIMS and Aptitude Research will release new joint research exploring AI adoption at each level of the hiring funnel — providing TA leaders with data-driven insight into the real use cases and measurable value of AI across global organisations. The research is designed to help HR and talent acquisition teams build evidence-based AI adoption strategies grounded in how peer organisations are actually deploying these tools.
A Customer Perspective: Building AI Intentionally
"In today's evolving landscape, too many organizations rush to implement AI without a thoughtful foundation. iCIMS has clearly taken a different approach, building intentionally and responsibly to ensure it enhances hiring rather than disrupts it."
— Danny Rojas, Senior Manager of Talent Acquisition, The Container Store & iCIMS STAR of the Year Award Winner
Attendees can visit booth #237 to connect with the iCIMS team, access the new AI adoption research, and schedule an on-site demonstration throughout Transform, March 23–25 in Las Vegas. More information about the platform is available at icims.com.
