Laying the foundations for Asia's digital workforce

THE global pandemic has disrupted the livelihoods of individuals and businesses across Asia. But the ensuing crisis has also brought about an accelerated, widespread adoption of new technologies, as well as behavioural and consumption changes towards a digital world. As we continue to adapt to the new environment, we will see such technologies fundamentally change the way we work, live and communicate with one another.

To ensure a digital-ready workforce that is equipped with the relevant capabilities, both public and private sectors need to collaborate to support individuals and employers through this challenging period. Businesses have to transform to the new normal, and individuals have to acquire digital skills to cope with the changes to work processes and adoption of new technology.
