Artificial intelligence is transforming how many businesses and sectors operate. It is also shaking up the world of work. 

As a world-leading business hub, London is at the vanguard of this change. The city must respond quickly to ensure the benefits of AI flow to firms and individuals across the capital.

BusinessLDN and Deloitte are working together to investigate how AI affects workforces now — and in the future — with a focus on understanding the labour market impacts of this for London and how the capital should navigate those impacts. We’ll explore issues such as re-skilling existing workers, what the disruption means for entry-level jobs and the traditional pyramid structure for progression, and the skills required to oversee the technology — all geared towards answering the question ​“how does London and Londoners win at AI?”

This builds on our leadership of the London Local Skills Improvement Plan, including a recent report on advanced digital skills which set out detailed policy recommendations to support the capital’s competitiveness and ensure Londoners are equipped for the jobs of today and tomorrow.
