Are We AI Ready?

05 Mar 25

New and emerging technologies and AI are revolutionising our key sectors, driving growth and productivity, but there are risks for industries and people left behind. How are we adapting training needs for industry to be ready for the impact AI will have? Equally, are we training the right people for the right jobs and available amount of work?

In this final webinar in the Hertfordshire Futures Debates series, we will look at the digital arena both from the innovation side – how can this cross-cutting sector drive innovation across key sectors – as well as skills and inclusion to ensure that we better harness its benefits and future-proof our economy for a digital age.
