The Amazon Web Services-Gallup Asia Pacific Digital Skills Study
The economic benefits of a tech-savvy workforce in Asia Pacific
As the world grows increasingly digital, information technology is driving significant global change for individuals, organizations and countries. To study these dynamics in a global context, Amazon Web Services (AWS), in collaboration with Gallup, conducted one of the largest international surveys to date on digital skills.
Digital transformation is happening at a rapid pace across the Asia Pacific (APAC) region -- from the way people work to the way they live.
Findings from the Gallup-AWS Asia Pacific Digital Skills Study show that workers who obtain digital skills provide immense economic value to businesses and workers worldwide and within APAC, increasing gross domestic product (GDP), revenue, innovation, wages, job security, and job satisfaction for businesses that integrate these technologies and the workers who acquire the needed skill sets.
While both workers and organizations cite strong interest in digital skills training, companies around the region continue to struggle filling vacant jobs that require these skills.
