Agenda for AI Sweden Talent Day
Competition for talent
We will begin by examining the current landscape of talent - what does the competition for talent actually look like, what are the real-world implications of a lack of AI competence? And what are countries, ecosystems and organizations doing about it? We will look for inspiration abroad and learn from one of the best AI ecosystems worldwide - Canada.
