Podcasts about digitalisation

Opportunities presented by digitalisation and AI go beyond traditional generational shifts; they will require fundamental change in the mindsets of business leaders Shannon Chamber CEO Helen Downes was quick to engage with Skillnet Ireland's new chief executive, Mark Jordan, following his appointment in March 2025, by inviting him to address a luncheon to mark the tenth anniversary of Shannon Chamber Skillnet. The event, which took place in the Radisson Blu Hotel in Limerick last week, attracted a guest list which included Chamber member companies, representatives from Skillnet Ireland, Skillnet Business Networks in the Mid-West region, the tertiary education sector and private training providers. Skillnet Ireland is recognised internationally as a best practice model for workforce development, supporting the competitiveness, productivity, and innovation of Irish businesses. Under the leadership of newly appointed chief executive Mark Jordan, the organisation remains committed to building on its excellent track record of the past 26 years. Since its inception in 1999, Skillnet Ireland, via its 70 Business Networks, which includes Shannon Chamber Skillnet, has continually evolved. This evolution is reflected in the expanding profile of the businesses it supports, the deepening and diversification of its engagement strategies, and the ongoing development of innovative support schemes tailored to the needs of industry. "Our success depends on aligning Skillnet Ireland's work with national strategies, including the National Digital and the National AI Strategies," said Mark Jordan. "To remain relevant, we need to anticipate change and have meaningful conversations with companies to bridge the gap in skills development. This is particularly important as 59% of SMEs and MNCs expect their core skills to undergo a major shift in the next two to three years, and that, by 2027, 50% of today's skills will be obsolete," he added. Focusing on future skill requirements, Mr. Jordan stated: "Digitalisation will play a critical role in helping companies become more resilient nationally and internationally. Technologies such as machine learning and AI will be central in the transformational journey of companies in many sectors, as will sustainable business practices, which have become an integral part of Ireland's enterprise sector". Highlighting regional achievements, he noted: "In the past year alone, 3,000 businesses in counties Clare, Limerick and Tipperary, upskilled 7,000 people through Skillnet Ireland programmes. That level of engagement is impressive, and it's only set to grow." Mr Jordan was joined on the podium by representatives from Atlantic Aviation Group (AAG), Element Six and Engine Lease Finance Corporation (ELFC) for a lively question and answer session moderated by Shannon Chamber Skillnet Network Manager, Alan Kelly. Trevor Rogers, organisation development manager with AAG, Stephen Linnane, general manager, Element Six, and Maria Frost, senior vice president, human resources at ELFC, brought valuable insights into the strategic importance of keeping employees' skills aligned with the evolving needs of industry. During a panel discussion, they shared their views on topics as diverse as: people development during a corporate merger, addressing skills gaps post-apprenticeships, Skillnet Ireland as an operating model, the future of learning and development and the growing relevance of sustainability literacy. They highlighted the benefits of having balanced skills within an organisation and discussed the positive payback, in terms of mindset shift and increased motivation, that can result from introducing a skills-based pay programme, as well as the urgency of prioritising digital literacy across all sectors. Having witnessed, first hand, a clear escalation in the demand for talent development programmes, Shannon Chamber CEO, Helen Downes, said that operating a Skillnet Business Network has enabled the Chamber to help local b...

Distribution alimentaire : ce que nous apprennent les signaux faiblesLa distribution alimentaire change. Lentement, parfois à bas bruit, mais profondément.À travers douze épisodes du podcast, j'ai échangé avec des dirigeants de grands groupes, de startups, de plateformes logistiques ou d'acteurs de la transition alimentaire. Chacun d'eux a livré une part du puzzle. Et ensemble, leurs paroles dessinent une nouvelle carte du commerce alimentaire en France.Digitalisation, logistique urbaine, maîtrise de la donnée, quête de sens, réinvention de la proximité… autant de mutations qui transforment la façon dont nous produisons, distribuons et consommons l'alimentaire.Dans cet épisode solo, je vous propose une lecture transversale de ces évolutions. Une mise en perspective de ce que les signaux faibles racontent déjà du paysage de demain.Ce n'est pas une synthèse, mais une analyse. Un récit structuré autour de cinq grands axes, enrichi par les paroles de celles et ceux qui font bouger les lignes.Que l'on soit distributeur, industriel, logisticien, startup ou simplement curieux de ces transformations, cet épisode est une invitation à penser le commerce autrement. À décrypter, ensemble, ce que ces mutations impliquent. Et à questionner ce que la distribution alimentaire veut ou devra devenir.

MentorsWork, an award-winning initiative of Skillnet Ireland in partnership with the Small Firms Association (SFA), celebrated its five-year anniversary at a special event yesterday. Since its launch in 2020, MentorsWork has provided targeted business supports to nearly 4,000 small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) across Ireland and invested €6.5 million to drive SME growth, resilience, and innovation. Mark Jordan, Chief Executive of Skillnet Ireland, said: "The MentorsWork programme is a fantastic resource for SMEs, delivering practical supports and strategic guidance to businesses across Ireland. Expert mentors provide education and information to SME owners on how to innovate, adopt new technologies and adjust to ever-changing market dynamics - particularly in the current economic and technological climate. It is a testament to the success of the programme that it has reached this half decade milestone, and we look forward to its continued success and growth into the future." David Broderick, Director of the Small Firms Association, said: "This milestone reflects the strength and value of the MentorsWork programme in helping SMEs overcome real-world challenges. The initiative has been a game-changer for so many businesses. By addressing specific needs and equipping SMEs with tailored support and mentoring, we are helping them not only survive but thrive in an increasingly competitive environment. We are proud of what MentorsWork has achieved since its launch in 2020." MentorsWork was launched in 2020 to provide targeted support across critical areas, including digitisation, HR management, sales, finance, marketing, sustainability, and overall business growth. The programme has invested €6.5 million to date into providing upskilling initiatives, leveraging a network of best-in-class mentors to empower SMEs to build their competitiveness through skills. With plans to support over 900 SMEs by the end of 2025 and open to business owners and managers from all industries with 1-250 employees, the 12-week MentorsWork programme introduces participants to a dedicated and experienced mentor who works with them to address their specific areas of concern, alongside masterclasses and peer-to-peer workshops.

Minister Jack Chambers is launching 'Guidelines for the Responsible use of Artificial Intelligence in the Public Service'. Artificial Intelligence is changing how we live, work, and engage with the world around us. Governments worldwide face the challenge of meeting the digital expectations of their end-users while keeping pace with advancements in technology. These Guidelines compliment and inform strategies regarding the adoption of innovative technology and ways of working already underway in the public service, and seek to set a high standard for public service transformation and innovation, while prioritising public trust and people's rights. The Guidelines have been developed to actively empower public servants to use AI in the delivery of services. By firmly placing the human in the process, these guidelines aim to enhance public trust in how Government uses AI. A range of resources designed to support the adoption of AI have been developed, including clear information on Government's Principles for Responsible AI, a Decision Framework for evaluating the potential use of AI, a Responsible AI Canvas Tool to be used at planning stage, and the AI Lifecycle Guidance tool. Other government supports available to public service organisations also include learning and development materials and courses for public servants at no cost. In this regard, and in addition to its existing offering on AI, the Institute for Public Administration will provide a tutorial and in-person training dedicated to the AI Guidelines to further assist participants in applying the guidelines in their own workplaces. The guidelines contain examples of how AI is already being used across public services, including: St. Vincent's University Hospital exploring the potential for AI to assist with performing heart ultrasound scans, in order to help reduce waiting times for patients. The Revenue Commissioners using Large Language Models to route taxpayer queries more efficiently, ensuring faster and more accurate responses. The Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine developing an AI-supported solution to detect errors in grant applications and reduce processing times for applications. Minister Jack Chambers said: "AI offers immense possibilities to improve the provision of public services. These guidelines support public service bodies in undertaking responsible innovation in a way that is practical, helpful and easy to follow. "In keeping with Government's AI strategy, the guidance as well as the learning and development supports being offered by the Institute for Public Administration, will help public servants to pursue those opportunities in a way that is responsible. "AI is already transforming our world and it is crucial that we embrace that change and adapt quickly in order to deliver better policy and better public services for the people of Ireland." Minister of State for Public Procurement, Digitalisation and eGovernment, Emer Higgins said: "AI holds the potential to revolutionise how we deliver services, make decisions, and respond to the needs of our people. These guidelines will support thoughtful integration of AI into our public systems, enhance efficiency, and reduce administrative burdens and financial cost. Importantly, this will be done with strong ethical and human oversight, ensuring fairness, transparency, accountability, and the protection of rights and personal data at every step." Minister of State for Trade Promotion, Artificial Intelligence and Digital Transformation, Niamh Smyth said: "Government is committed to leveraging the potential of AI for unlocking productivity, addressing societal challenges, and delivering enhanced services. The guidelines launched today are part of a whole of government approach to putting in place the necessary enablers to underpin responsible and impactful AI adoption across the public service. They are an important step in meeting government's objective of better outcomes through AI adopti...

Skillnet Ireland and IDA Ireland are pleased to celebrate the first graduates to achieve a Certificate in Strategic Talent Development awarded by TU Dublin. Developed by Skillnet Ireland in collaboration with IDA Ireland, this new qualification upskills employees with the expertise to build a robust talent development strategy and plan.

Send us a textThe world is changing fast. Are democracy and human rights under threat? Our Inside Geneva podcast takes a deep dive.“Donald Trump is unravelling the constitution, where I believe we could describe this as a coup d'état,” says human rights lawyer Reed Brody.What happens when Big Tech gets involved in politics?“It is fine for Instagram or TikTok to realise that I am into biking and then try to sell me bikes. That's fine. That's a product. Manipulate me to sell me that. But that's not fine with political ideas,” continues Alberto Fernandez Gibaja, Head of Digitalisation and Democracy at the International Institute for Democracy and Electoral Assistance (IDEA).What about free speech?“For the first time in my life, I am listening to Americans on the radio and TV, talking to the press and refusing to use their names because they are afraid of retaliation,” says Brody.Is it still possible to have a democratic, fact-based debate?“For those of us who believe that we share a reality based on facts and science, we are on the losing side,” says Fernandez Gibaja.Are we losing the fundamental freedoms set out in the UN's Universal Declaration of Human Rights?

Bienvenue dans les coulisses du plus grand marché de produits frais au monde !Avec 234 hectares, plus de 1 200 entreprises, 12 000 emplois directs et un chiffre d'affaires annuel de plus de 12 milliards d'euros, Rungis est bien plus qu'un simple marché de gros. C'est un véritable poumon de l'alimentation française, une plateforme logistique clé qui alimente chaque jour restaurants, commerces et grandes surfaces.Dans cet épisode, j'ai eu le plaisir d'échanger avec Stéphane Layani, président du Marché International de Rungis depuis 2012. Visionnaire et passionné, il a su moderniser cette institution tout en préservant son ancrage historique. Ensemble, nous avons exploré les multiples facettes de Rungis, de son fonctionnement quotidien à ses enjeux stratégiques.Nous commençons par revenir sur le rôle central de Rungis dans la chaîne d'approvisionnement alimentaire française, son organisation et la diversité de ses produits, avant d'aborder les grands défis du marché :

"Synthetic love and digital emptiness: why we need to get back to living!!!"In an era when algorithms predict our desires, and chatbots imitate care, the concept of love is increasingly reduced to a set of notifications: a heart under a photo, a template message, an emoji instead of hugs. Digitalisation has turned emotions into a commodity, and relationships into a series of clicks. Social networks create the illusion of closeness, replacing deep conversations with likes, and real support with reactions in stories. We live in a world where falling in love begins with a swipe to the right and ends with a "fake account", and this is becoming a new norm.But behind this convenient virtual screen there is a dangerous paradox: the more we "connect", the more acutely we feel lonely. Artificial intelligence analyses our preferences, selecting the "perfect couple", but is not able to convey a tremor in the voice, the warmth of touch or a silent understanding of the gaze. Social media algorithms lure us into a trap of superficial connections, where the number of subscribers is more important than the quality of communication, and sincerity is lost in the pursuit of the perfect selfie.Humanity begins to forget that love is not a transaction, but a risk. Not the statistics of coincidences in the application, but the courage to be vulnerable. Not correspondence in the messenger, but the ability to be silent together, to hear not only words, but also pauses between them. Our neurons crave not digital impulses, but a living presence: laughter that makes the stomach hurt, disputes that make hands tremble, glances that burn through time and space.It's time to consciously create oasis of analogue reality. Turn off notifications to talk at dinner not about memes, but about fears. Replace the coffee story with a joint silence by the window. To return to the embrace the status of the main "messenger", and to awkward confessions - the value of a genuine gesture. Technology should be a bridge, not a wall.Love is not sold by subscription, she breathes, makes mistakes, smells rain on her skin, requires time and... imperfections. Because only in reality can we get burned, forgive, grow up. Only where the Internet is disconnected, life begins... ___________________________________________________________________________________ «Синтетическая любовь и цифровая пустота: почему нам нужно вернуться к живому!!!»В эпоху, когда алгоритмы предсказывают наши желания, а чат-боты имитируют заботу, понятие любви всё чаще сводится к набору уведомлений: сердечко под фото, шаблонное сообщение, эмодзи вместо объятий. Цифровизация превратила эмоции в товар, а отношения — в серию кликов. Социальные сети создают иллюзию близости, заменяя глубокие разговоры лайками, а настоящую поддержку — реакциями в сторис. Мы живём в мире, где влюблённость начинается с свайпа вправо, а заканчивается «фейковым аккаунтом», и это становится новой нормой.  Но за этой удобной виртуальной ширмой скрывается опасный парадокс: чем больше мы «подключаемся», тем острее чувствуем одиночество. Искусственный интеллект анализирует наши предпочтения, подбирая «идеальную пару», но не способен передать дрожь в голосе, тепло прикосновения или молчаливое понимание взгляда. Алгоритмы соцсетей заманивают нас в ловушку поверхностных связей, где количество подписчиков важнее качества общения, а искренность теряется в погоне за идеальным селфи.  Человечество начинает забывать, что любовь — это не транзакция, а риск. Не статистика совпадений в приложении, а смелость быть уязвимым. Не переписка в мессенджере, а умение молчать вместе, слышать не только слова, но и паузы между ними. Наши нейроны жаждут не цифровых импульсов, а живого присутствия: смеха, который заставляет живот болеть, споров, от которых дрожат руки, взглядов, прожигающих время и пространство.  Пришло время сознательно создавать оазисы аналоговой реальности. Выключить уведомления, чтобы поговорить за ужином не о мемах, а о страхах. Заменить сторис с кофе на совместное молчание у окна. Вернуть объятиям статус главного «мессенджера», а неловким признаниям — ценность неподдельного жеста. Технологии должны быть мостом, а не стеной.  Любовь не продаётся по подписке. Она дышит, ошибается, пахнет дождём на коже, требует времени и… несовершенства. Потому что только в реальности мы можем обжечься, простить, вырасти. Только там, где интернет отключается, начинается жизнь…

Send me a messageThe Sustainability Thread: Digitalising Supply Chain SustainabilityIn this episode of The Sustainable Supply Chain podcast, I sit down with Klaus Brettschneider, Director of Sustainability Products at Linx-AS, to explore how digitalisation is transforming sustainability management. Klaus introduces the concept of the sustainability thread—an evolution of the digital thread—that connects sustainability data across an organisation, enabling businesses to move beyond compliance and embed sustainability into product lifecycle management (PLM).We discuss the challenges companies face, from fragmented data to complex supply chains, and how automation can streamline processes like carbon accounting and lifecycle assessments. Klaus shares insights on regulatory pressures such as the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) and Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), highlighting how businesses must align their IT strategies with sustainability goals to stay ahead.We also cover:✅ Why sustainability reporting is overwhelming teams—and how to fix it✅ The role of AI, IoT, and blockchain in supply chain transparency✅ Why industries like steel and cement are progressing, while agriculture struggles✅ The importance of supplier collaboration in tracking sustainability dataKlaus argues that digitalisation is the missing link in supply chain sustainability. If companies want to make meaningful progress, they must digitise sustainability data, integrate it into their processes, and ensure seamless data flow across their value chains.

This podcast dives into the various applications of electronic data records in daily clinical practice, research, and the patient medical journey. From patient safety to department fundings, electronics records hold a potential for systemic changes. How do Europe and the United States of America differ in their approach to the use of such data to improve outcome? 

Dans cet épisode, nous accueillons :Jérôme Fleury du Cabinet Co Pilotes et Mickael Libersac du Cabinet Ythak Nous abordons l'ensemble des points suivants : 1. Management et structuration des cabinets comptables (00:00 - 01:33) Un bon manager doit penser au bien commun et impliquer ses équipes dans les décisions de recrutement. La qualité du service est un prérequis, pas une simple valeur ajoutée. Structurer un cabinet ne signifie pas se détacher totalement des équipes, mais les accompagner activement. 2. Évolution de la profession et montée en valeur ajoutée (07:05 - 09:16) Avec la facture électronique et l'IA (comme ChatGPT), les cabinets doivent évoluer pour proposer des missions à plus forte valeur ajoutée. L'interprétation des chiffres et l'accompagnement stratégique des clients deviennent les nouveaux piliers du métier. 3. Digitalisation et optimisation des processus (13:39 - 16:06) Investir dans des outils digitaux permet d'améliorer l'efficacité, mais leur multiplication peut aussi complexifier les processus. Automatisation des tâches répétitives, comme la création de dossiers et l'intégration des clients, pour fluidifier le travail. 4. Structuration des équipes et gestion multisite (24:58 - 27:33) Expansion du cabinet avec des bureaux à Bayonne (France) et Dakar (Sénégal). Dakar gère la production comptable de base (saisie, TVA), permettant aux équipes en France de se concentrer sur des missions de conseil. 5. Culture d'entreprise et recrutement (41:26 - 43:08) Importance d'attirer les bons talents en alignant la culture du cabinet avec les attentes des candidats. La validation des recrutements par les managers et les équipes est essentielle pour une bonne intégration. 6. Formation et intégration des collaborateurs (49:58 - 52:21) Un parcours d'intégration structuré est mis en place pour chaque nouvel arrivant. L'équilibre vie pro / vie perso est devenu un critère clé pour les collaborateurs, un changement particulièrement marqué après 2020. 7. Challenges et résilience des associés (1:08:05 - 1:17:10) Témoignages des invités sur leur parcours et les défis rencontrés, notamment des périodes difficiles comme la gestion d'une équipe en croissance rapide ou des problèmes personnels impactant le travail. 8. L'expert-comptable en tant qu'entrepreneur (1:19:41 - 1:22:03) L'expertise comptable reste une entreprise, et les experts-comptables doivent avoir une véritable posture entrepreneuriale. L'impulsion et la vision du cabinet reposent en grande partie sur les associés.

In response, various governance frameworks have emerged across different jurisdictions to address the challenges posed by AI. Notably, the European Union's AI Act, which entered into force on 1 August 2024, stands out as the first legislation of its kind to introduce comprehensive rules governing the development and deployment of AI systems in the EU. However, understanding the complexities and nuances of this legislation remains a significant challenge.The Department of Innovation and Digitalisation in Law of the University of Vienna is therefore delighted to invite you to the first event in a series of three dedicated to exploring the implications, opportunities, and challenges presented by the AI Act. The event series is organised on the occasion of the launch of the books "EU Artificial Intelligence (AI) Act: A Commentary" and "AI Governance and Liability in Europe: A Primer" by Wolters Kluwer, edited by Ceyhun Necati Pehlivan, Nikolaus Forgó and Peggy Valcke. The first event of the series in Vienna will bring together leading experts, academics and policymakers in the field to discuss AI literacy measures and the governance structure under the AI Act. The next two events in Brussels and Madrid will be further dedicated to different aspects of the AI Act, providing a comprehensive overview of and encouraging diverse dialogue on the new regulatory framework for AI in the EU.Speakers: Link: https://id.univie.ac.at/news-und-events/detailansicht-news-und-events/news/untangling-the-eu-artificial-intelligence-act-ai-literacy-and-governance-1/

Michael McMahon, Professor of Economics at University of Oxford, and Fiona Czerniawska, CEO of Source, caught up with Emma Carroll, Head of Content at Source, on the latest episode of our The Future of the Firm podcast to debate the potential impact of President Trump's policies on professional services via the four global megatrends of deglobalisation, decarbonisation, demographics, and digitalisation.      Michael and Fiona shared their insights on the following matters and more:       The new US government's protectionist policies are the latest iteration of a global move towards deglobalisation. While clients may turn to consultants to help navigate these changes, the inflationary impact (of tariffs, etc.) may lead to tighter purse strings and decreased consulting demand long term.   Trump has made his stance on climate change and decarbonisation very clear. But firms should not be packing away their ESG services—the world could look very different at the end of Trump's presidency.   The new US government's plans to restrict immigration, paired with other demographic changes, will lead to skills shortages in the labour market. This may affect the services clients are looking for—for instance, there may be an opportunity for firms to offer more staff augmentation services to fill this gap.  While the EU is bringing in regulations to encourage ethical AI use, the US wants to keep restrictions to a minimum. The region is therefore likely to see a further boom in digitalisation and tech growth, and firms can expect a boost in tech consulting work as a result.   Consulting leaders should be looking to the capital markets to assess the impacts of Trump's policies—this is how he will be measuring success. Firms should also keep an eye on client confidence levels and consumer behaviour patterns to respond to any early trends.     If you enjoyed this conversation, don't miss our sister podcast, Business Leader's Voice.

Almost every city in the modern world faces the difficult challenge of understanding its citizens' opinions and turning them into meaningful decisions. Miloš Švaňa, a PhD student at Technical University of Ostrava, has decided to focus on this topic in his dissertation, with an aim to develop a framework for social media data analysis. By using fuzzy logic and fuzzy set theory to help municipalities understand the needs of their citizens, Švaňa uses this information to inform better decision making.Read more from Miloš in an upcoming chapter of Springer Fuzzy Management Methods.
