Technological Impact on Indian Industries and Upskilling for Future-Ready Talent

“Technology has revolutionized the business landscape, redefining job roles and transforming industries. To remain competitive and thrive in this dynamic landscape, industries must embrace innovation and equip their workforce with the necessary skills to adapt to emerging technologies, drive operational efficiencies, and unlock new growth opportunities.

The advent of generative AI technology is poised to disrupt industries across the spectrum, heralding an era of unprecedented innovation and creativity. However, as with any other technological revolution, this also brings forth the pressing need for upskilling and reskilling the workforce. Seamless integration of technology in daily work can be achieved with a proactive approach to equip the workforce with the necessary skills to harness the complete power of generative AI. We, at Honeywell, recognize this paradigm shift and the compelling need for upskilling that generative AI brings.

Honeywell’s CSR unit, Honeywell Hometown Solutions India Foundation has been partnering with several institutions to train higher education students on advanced technologies such as cloud computing, big data, networking, RPA, artificial intelligence, and machine learning and make them industry-ready resources. In the last three years, HHSIF has trained more than 22,000 youth and 60% of them have also been placed with various corporates. In the current financial year, another 8000 students will get trained in advanced tech skills and in sustainability focused courses which will equip them to pursue a career in the green economy, which is evolving fast in India. In addition, HHSIF is boosting the start-up ecosystem by investing in deep-tech and deep science innovations in partnership with the Indian Institute of Science. Through these efforts, Honeywell is not just aiming to spread the technology and tech skills but also making them more inclusive.

Honeywell believes in fostering an environment of curiosity, creativity, and a relentless pursuit of excellence. We are committed to co-innovating with our customers and bringing about future-ready technologies to revolutionize and transform industries.”
