Accelerating Workforce Transformation in the Age of AI

About this event

In 2025, there are several key trends are shaping Indonesia’s software landscape: Generative AI, Low Code/No-Code platforms, Cloud-Native solutions and cybersecurity.

The significance of software technology in fostering business innovation and transformation is more pronounced than ever. The rise of open-source technologies has catalysed the rapid adoption of cloud computing and innovative business models. However, these advancements come with challenges, including security vulnerabilities and implementation inefficiencies. Addressing these issues requires a strategic focus on talent development.

To capitalise on the potential of digital transformation, Indonesian companies must prioritise bridging the skills gap across all levels of their organisations.

The Indonesian digital economy is projected to exceed $130 billion by 2025, driven by robust growth in e-commerce and fintech sectors. This growth underscores the need for comprehensive training and certification programs not only for IT professionals but also for business leaders across various functions.

At the Executive Luncheon: Accelerating Workforce Transformation in the Age of AI, FutureCIO together with Red Hat, will deep dive into how strategic training can bridge the skills gap in Indonesia’s workforce and explore:

  • How to build a future-ready workforce equipped to meet tomorrow’s challenges
  • How to effectively implement open-source solutions, ensuring project success and operational excellence
  • Training initiatives that will foster innovation and collaboration within your organisation, maximising the potential of development teams.
  • Tools such as the Red Hat Skills Assessment to identify specific skills gaps within your teams

As Indonesia navigates this exciting era of technological advancement, collaboration among HR professionals, educational institutions, certification bodies, and industry leaders is crucial. By embracing trends such as Generative AI, low-code platforms, cloud-native solutions, and robust cybersecurity measures, Indonesian companies can position themselves as leaders in their industries.

With the right strategies in place, 2025 can be a year of unprecedented opportunities for Indonesian businesses—equipping them with the tools necessary to thrive in an increasingly digital world.

The time to act is now; together we can accelerate workforce transformation in Indonesia and drive sustainable growth through innovation.
