According to a study conducted by Talent Garden and Nesta Italia entitled "Digital Skills in Italy," a discouraging picture emerges for the digital growth of companies.
The numbers speak for themselves: out of approximately 344,907 job offers in the digital sector (in 2018), the response was at a minimum level due to a clear lack of skills in the sector and a lack of experience in using the internet among Italians: only 76% compared to the OECD average of 84%.
Translated, this means that Italy is experiencing a real digital emergency that risks slowing down the evolution of the world of work and, consequently, the transformation of small, medium, and large organizations.
As for the details, Milan, and Lombardy in general, currently confirms its position as the capital of digital opportunities in Italy, with over 20% of active job offers in the region. Among the most sought-after professional figures are data analysts, cyber security and big data experts, and technical designers, emerge at the forefront, developers with a particular interest in software developers.
