Deputy Minister Mondli Gungubele today delivered the keynote address at the Future of Work and Business Conference in Pretoria, where government, business, labour, academia and young people came together to discuss practical solutions to skills development, employment and economic participation.
Addressing delegates, the Deputy Minister emphasised that digital transformation is not simply a technology agenda, but a jobs agenda, a youth empowerment agenda and ultimately a nation-building agenda. He called for greater collaboration to ensure that young South Africans are equipped with the skills, opportunities and support needed to participate meaningfully in the digital economy.
