About the event

Join us for our May 21st Tech Thursday Superpowered by Manitoba Innovates and co-hosted by AccelR8, for a timely and important conversation on AI and Workforce Development.
While much of the AI conversation today focuses on tools and technology, this session takes a different approach by focusing on the people behind the technology. What skills are actually in demand right now? Where are organizations struggling to adapt? How are students and early-career professionals preparing for a rapidly shifting landscape? And where are the biggest gaps between education, industry, and workforce expectations?
This panel brings together a diverse set of perspectives to unpack these questions in a way that is practical, grounded, and relevant to what is happening across the ecosystem today.
You will hear:
A system-level view on workforce readiness, innovation, and digital transformation
