Skills for Digital and Technologies

Digital and technology skills are central to the UK’s economic future. Achieving the ambitions of the Industrial Strategy will depend on building a workforce equipped to adapt, innovate, and thrive in a rapidly changing economy, with growing demand for skills across AI, cyber security, data, software, and digital infrastructure.

Delivered in partnership with techUK, this event will bring together leaders from industry, education, and policy to explore one of the defining questions facing the UK: how do we build a digitally enabled workforce ready for the age of AI?

At a moment when digital capability is becoming central to productivity, innovation, and competitiveness, this event will examine how skills policy can keep pace with technological change, and how the UK can ensure people are equipped not just to adapt to the future, but to help shape it.
