    Description

    In this session, our aim is to spark a dialogue on the pressing issue of Job Loss in the Digital era and brainstorm on how we can create jobs and means of livelihood in the Internet era. We will explore topics such as the potential of the Internet to reshape industries and employment landscapes worldwide. Organizations leveraging digital connectivity are not only redefining jobs but also driving innovation. We believe that through the integration of the Internet and Artificial Intelligence (AI), the job sector is revolutionizing traditional employment and entrepreneurship, enhancing efficiency, and fostering inclusion. The internet is unlocking unprecedented opportunities for individuals and communities globally, cementing its status as the ultimate job creator of the digital age. The session, ‘Internet: The Net Job Creator’ shall focus on how new companies that came in the age of the Internet create high-end jobs that are based on data. Therefore, a 90-minute discussion will afford us sufficient time to delve deeply into these subjects, facilitating a productive exchange of ideas and the generation of actionable insights.
