Panel Discussion - Is talent the most important factor in driving success?

26 Feb 2025
Caribbean Ballroom
Metro Connect 2025

Meeting the demands of digital infrastructure will require more talent with a wider range of skills. Securing and developing the best talent is vital to the success of all companies in digital infrastructure, from construction to service providers. Our speakers will explore: 

  • How are we defining success, and how has talent been a critical success factor?

  • Where are the current skill gaps most acute, and what solutions exist? How can telcos plan for the skills required by AI through hiring, reskilling and automation? 

  • What initiatives are proving most successful in creating inclusive environments to attract the best talent from all backgrounds?
