On Wednesday 22 April 2025, we brought cross-sector leaders together at the Guildhall in the City of London for the third annual Workforce Digital Skills Summit.
Across a varied and dynamic agenda, business leaders, policy-makers, delivery partners and sector experts confronted an urgent truth: the UK will not unlock the benefits of AI, automation or digital transformation unless it first fixes its essential digital skills foundations.
We’re now pleased to share our event summary from a day that was full of energy, engagement and a drive to create real change.
Five key takeaways
- Essential digital skills are the bedrock of a future-fit workforce
- Digital confidence directly affects employability and economic outcomes
- AI will widen the divide unless foundations are fixed first
- Both a learning challenge and a leadership challenge
