The European Commission officially announced that 2023 is the European Year of Skills. As the demand for new capabilities in the EU gathers pace, reskilling and upskilling will enable the business landscape to become more competitive.
Closely linked to the workplace, the skills gaps Europe is facing need to be filled with broader competences required to support the green and digital transitions. It is imperative that key stakeholders comprising of government, educational and training institutions, business and civil societies need to collaborate closely in order to create the new skills ecosystem.
How can Greece reinforce its skills environment to remain competitive?
Within this context, The Economist Impact Events for Greece, Cyprus, Malta and SE Europe, have great pleasure in announcing the organisation of the Economist Summit on skills, entitled "Europe: The new era for skills - Greece: The human dynamic in the new workplace and society", scheduled to take place on February 17th 2023 at the Hotel Grande Bretagne, Athens.

On 15–16 June, the Swedish Presidency of the Council of the European Union and the European Commission will host the Digital Assembly on the theme of a digital, open and secure Europe.
The objective is for Europe to be at the forefront of technology and develop a competitive digital single market based on a strong focus on cyber security during the Digital Decade.
The Digital Decade provides the EU with opportunities for innovation, growth and competitiveness at global level to achieve a digital and open Europe. In addition, digitalisation is increasing rapidly, which means that security must be enhanced. A solid foundation – which is stated in the 2030 Digital Compass – is crucial to for the Digital Decade to succeed.
The Digital Assembly 2023 will serve as an arena for dialogue on the possibilities to achieve a digital, open and secure Europe. Europe must be able to combine openness, competition and continued digitalisation with a heightened awareness of cyber security, despite the complex situation that has arisen due the current geopolitical situation.
At the conference, leaders and experts from the public sector, academia, industry and civil society will have an opportunity to meet and discuss the future of European digital development.
If you have been granted access to attend the conference in person, you must provide identification upon arrival. You will be given a personal badge that gives you access to all plenary sessions. In addition, you will have the possibility to network and see interesting exhibitions.

The new normal in the healthcare ecosystem is all about innovative healthcare delivery. Taking healthcare to all is where the crux lies. Healthcare is undoubtedly India’s fastest-growing industry. Being one of the largest industries in the country, that serves almost all of the ever-growing population, it is immensely contributing to the GDP growth and creating employment opportunities. Going by the numbers shared in reports, the Indian healthcare industry was worth around INR 17 trillion in 2020 and is expected to grow at an approximate CAGR of 30 percent between 2021 and 2026, reaching INR 81.30 trillion by 2026.
The rapid digitization and emphasis on tele-access in healthcare during COVID-19 have made it possible for many previously deprived individuals to access quality healthcare services. In addition, the Covid-19 outbreak radically accelerated the acceptance of health-tech. It acted as a springboard for Indian startups to develop quality and affordable healthcare for every Indian, furthering the idea that quality healthcare is a human right. Despite much advancement, creating health equity through data, transparency, and accountability still remains a distant dream. Better data and analysis from both public health systems and private sector interventions is a must to take the next step. Indian healthcare needs tech-enabled, patient-centric eco-system. The Second Edition of the World Healthcare Summit will focus on taking healthcare to the masses in the most cost-effective manner while retaining the emphasis on quality.

The cybersecurity industry faces a significant skills gap, with a shortage of qualified professionals to meet the growing demand for cyber talent. Although there is a wide variety of cybersecurity professional trainings available, these trainings use different approaches and the certificates obtained are not compatible with each other. Contrary to the United States, there is no European Authority responsible for approving these trainings. The situation becomes even more complex when considering sector-specific trainings. This paper sheds light on the certification landscape regarding relevant, organisations and bodies at the international and European level. The standards, the criteria, and the processes regarding professional certifications are discussed. The manuscript concludes with a proposal of a sector-agnostic schema for a cybersecurity professional training programme.

The European Cybersecurity Skills Framework (ECSF) offers a practical approach to developing a skilled cybersecurity workforce. The paper explores the application of the European Cybersecurity Skills Framework (ECSF) in real-world cybersecurity training in EU innovation projects, addressing a significant research gap. By providing insights and best practices, this study aims to support organisations and communities in enhancing cybersecurity talent and workforce development. It offers valuable information for stakeholders such as policymakers, educational institutions, training providers, and cybersecurity professionals. Ultimately, the goal is to promote a comprehensive understanding of cybersecurity skills development and strengthen Europe’s cybersecurity workforce. Ultimately, the goal is to promote a comprehensive understanding of cybersecurity skills development and to strengthen Europe’s cybersecurity workforce. In the field of cybersecurity, EU innovation projects play a vital role in developing new solutions and fostering a more resilient digital environment. This study specifically focuses on the relationship between implementing ECSF in the EU innovation projects, particularly CyberSecPro, NERO and CyberSynchrony. These projects aim to develop solutions for cybersecurity education and training. They also seek to strengthen the resilience of the European market against cyber threats by promoting the adoption of advanced cybersecurity solutions. This study highlights the practical implications of implementing the ECSF in these projects and its potential to enhance cybersecurity skills development and workforce competencies within EU nations.

This paper explores the critical need for harmonising Cybersecurity Professional Education and Training (CPET) across the European Union, helping professionals from all sectors of the economy to acquire the necessary knowledge, skills, capabilities and values to cope with the cybersecurity challenges in their daily work. The European Union (EU) has been at the forefront of addressing the growing cybersecurity challenges. However, cyber threats continue to evolve and spread quickly. It demands a coordinated approach to developing cybersecurity skills and knowledge. It is essential for strengthening the EU's overall security posture. This paper argues that the need for a robust and harmonised Cybersecurity Education and Training (CPET) framework or solutions is becoming increasingly critical. A qualitative research methodology is employed to better understand the complexities involved in CPET harmonisation. This study draws on a wide range of sources, including literature, expert interviews, and panel discussions, to examine the challenges and opportunities of harmonising cybersecurity education and training (CPET) across Europe. It argues that by adopting targeted strategic recommendations, the EU can strengthen its cybersecurity capabilities, boost resilience, and better protect its digital infrastructure through a more unified and effective approach.
