Work: In Progress – The Future of Work, Workforce and Workplace

Session 2: Hiring demands of the growing tech sector

The world of work is changing. From the future of workspaces and ways of working, through to future jobs and talent planning; from commitments to diversity, inclusion and social purpose through to meeting the hiring demands of the growing tech sector.

Streamed live from Belfast, Work: In Progress is a Startacus event with a NI heart and soul, but with a focus on themes of global relevance and significance.

Each themed session is accessible as a standalone 1 hr 20 min streamed event (with a small in-person audience) and will encompass a keynote speaker, a panel discussion, as well as an opportunity to hear from 2 Irish tech startups with relevance to the event’s core themes.

In Partnership with Young Enterprise NI, in this 2nd session focused on the hiring demands of the growing tech sector we explore:

– Sourcing talent for current tech and stem roles – where and how?

– Are we facing an imminent crisis in recruiting tech talent?

– LinkedIn company pages and the role they play in attracting and retaining top talent

– Developing our local tech ecosystem to support the growth of FDI and indigenous tech businesses

– Innovative ideas and initiatives for recruitment and retention

– Sourcing global talent for UK-based tech companies – the process and the legals

– The growth of the tech sector in NI
