Australia is undergoing rapid transformation as artificial intelligence and other emerging technologies reshape the economy and workplaces. The ACS’ annual Digital Pulse report has tracked these challenges for the past decade, and the 2024 report is the most critical yet.
 

At our state launch in Adelaide, we’ll focus on how South Australia is positioned to adapt to these changes. In 2023, South Australia's technology workforce grew by 13.8%, surpassing the national growth rate of 9%, with nearly 49,000 South Australians currently working in tech roles. The Digital Pulse forecasts this number will exceed 64,500 by 2030, underscoring the urgency for action.
 

The 2024 report calls for a comprehensive overhaul of the nation’s skills, training, and immigration programs to keep pace with technological advancements. Join us as we lay out a practical roadmap to build the tech skills Australia needs and highlight the importance of uniting key groups to form a coalition that can address the challenges ahead.
