Next frontier: Getting ready for future of work - Women & STEM and Women & AI DC sessions

Room: Sorbonne University Abu Dhabi

Description

The growing adoption of artificial intelligence and automation in the workplace, and the expansion of the workforce to include both on- and off-balance-sheet talent are fundamentally changing the way we work and the way companies design jobs and environments. 45% of existing work in the Middle East is potentially being automated by 2030. So what are implications for policy makers, for companies and for individuals? How will businesses operate under the new realities of work? How can we take this opportunity to re-skill and up-skill the workforce, especially in fast-growing STEM roles? How can we reimagine talent models, organizational practices, and business models for a more inclusive organizations and better future for both women and men?
