Our education, workforce, and care economy experts will be on the ground at this year’s ASU+GSV Summit to explore how generative AI will shape future careers, why upskilling is so critical, and what companies must do to embrace this evolution.
As a sponsor of the 2024 ASU+GSV Summit, BCG is joining educators, investors, industry leaders, and entrepreneurs from around the world to tackle issues surrounding education, employability, and the workforce. We help institutions understand the jobs of the future, and we collaborate with organizations to orient their programming, talent, and infrastructure toward a brighter tomorrow.

Like most technology, GenAI will soon be essential for success in most jobs. Hiring is no exception. GenAI can facilitate skills-first hiring, making it possible for employers to quickly and easily see if a candidate’s skills, aptitudes, and talents fit a job’s requirements. We discuss all this and more in a session designed to demystify GenAI.

At BCG, we have our finger on the pulse of the workforce ecosystem. We apply our expertise in education, talent development, and the care economy to help organizations fuel employees’ mobility. Moreover, our teams work to break down industry and functional siloes so organizations can tap the benefits of the entire workforce ecosystem.
Jobs of the Future. What are the jobs of the future, and how must organizations position their programming, talent, and infrastructure to support tomorrow’s career paths? Our experts help organizations tap into educational systems, talent pipelines, and wraparound support services to elevate the entire workforce ecosystem.
Succeeding in a Skills-First World. What shifts must organizations make to fulfill the technology, GenAI, and talent development needs of the future? Our future-of-work philosophy focuses on upskilling and reskilling, with an eye toward tangible ROI for employers and the workforce.
GenAI. GenAI is everywhere. It is enabling more personalized learning, impacting student journeys, and unlocking skills-based hiring strategies. BCG’s experts draw on our deep technical capabilities, extensive experience, and industry partnerships for insights into how AI and GenAI are shaping education and lifelong learning.
The Care Economy. The care economy—a vast, $6 trillion support ecosystem—is critical for a functional society, and it underpins every part of the global economy. More support and services are needed so people can engage in the training and upskilling that the jobs of the future will require.
Talent can be hard to source and retain, even as segments of the US population lack access to satisfying, supportive jobs. Three initiatives are making a difference.
Costly or cost-effective? Recent BCG research finds that childcare benefits deliver returns of up to 425% of their cost for companies across the US.

Higher education needs to incorporate AI in two ways: to support and instruct students, and as part of the curriculum to prepare students to use AI in their work.
More than 25 BCG thought leaders will be at ASU+GSV, including:
