India has achieved excellence in improving the productivity of skilled workforce and now, it's time for the nation to replicate this for unskilled workforce. We are living in the era of "fast eating the slow" and speed matters in this rapidly changing global environment," concluded Nicholas Brathwaite.

The 11th edition of IESA Vision Summit has received  participation from the Government of India and witnessed the highest ever participation from State governments, with representation from Karnataka, Kerala, Telangana, Madhya Pradesh, Odisha, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh.
