According to the European Commission, Industry 5.0 “provides a vision of industry that aims beyond efficiency and productivity as sole goals and reinforces the role and contribution of industry to society.” How will the fifth industrial revolution change our world?

The Asia Pacific Career Development Association (APCDA) provides an international forum for sharing career development ideas and experiences in the Asia Pacific.  The audience will consist of delegates from many Asian countries and regions as well as other parts of the world.  The conference provides opportunities for networking, sharing among practitioners, and identifying new resources.  Join us online or in-person to share and discover new ideas and visions of the future.
