"AI is the Industrial Revolution of knowledge work.”
- PwC’s 2024 AI Jobs Barometer
1 in 4 Hong Kong people fear losing jobs to AI. Do you know which groups are most affected by this AI revolution?
Knowledge work sectors have a higher AI penetration, especially in professional services, information & communication, and financial services (PwC, 2024) While there was a +61% growth in women working in professional services from 2010 to 2020, which is 2x as much as what we see in men. (Hong Kong Women in Figures, 2021) These figures tell us that women are affected the most in this fast-changing world.
“SHE Sparks in Tech 2025” aims to empower women with the knowledge and skills to thrive in the rapidly evolving field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and technology. With a focus on innovation, inclusivity, and women empowerment, this program aligns with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals: SDG 4 (Quality Education), SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth), SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure), SDG 13 (Climate Action) and SDG 17 (Partnerships for the Goals).
