“India has emerged as a powerhouse in the world economy, driven by significant strides in its Demographic Dividend, Digital Infrastructure, Entrepreneurial Spirit, Structural Reforms and Infrastructural Improvements over the past decade. With the Digital Revolution empowering India in last few years, India appears to be well placed to continue its journey in post-Covid era.
As Digital Technologies have impacted several spheres of life in India in the last 2-3 years, the workforce of future also needs to transform itself. Today’s young generation needs to re-skill themselves with the new technologies, as they get ready to enter into transformed Indian workplaces. Digitization is expected to touch all the career paths, and students can get there in today’s swift changing VUCA world (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous) by continuous focus on Learning and re-inventing themselves.”
