Why Attend?
Full Overview
The digital skills gap is a threat to economies globally with far fewer young people leaving full-time education fully-equipped to thrive in the workforce. Innovation in technology continues to transform practically every industry. For those fluent in the digital world, a post-pandemic society promises a wealth of opportunities.
As we look ahead, the need for curating courses and programmes specifically designed to bridge the gap is high on the agenda – from managing technology and data to analytical thinking. What are the key skill gaps right now? In what ways are the policies surrounding upskilling being adapted to better support the growing digital economy? What can be learnt from governments, educational institutions and industries that are successfully collaborating to foster diverse, home-grown talent?
This webinar, organised by the FT in partnership with Huawei, discussed how leaders across education, talent and technology are boosting digital skills and their respective roles in helping develop a more productive economy.
Topics of discussion:
- What are the key skill gaps right now? How are these being addressed?
- In what ways are the policies surrounding upskilling being adapted to better support the growing digital economy?
- What can be learnt from governments, educational institutions and industries that are successfully collaborating to foster diverse, home-grown talent?
- A culture that nurtures and inspires talent: How can organisations include this into their wider strategic ambitions?
