  • Last week, DigitalES Summit 2022 welcomed more than 13,000 attendees, 152 speakers, 37 sponsors and a wide range of collaborating entities.
  • In the context of a shortage of ICT professionals that already exceeds 120,400 vacancies in Spain, the congress focused on young students.

Madrid, July 13, 2022 – Just a few days ago, DigitalES, the Spanish Association for Digitalization, made public its update of vacancies in the national technology sector: 120,400 unfilled positions, which represents a 70% increase in one year. Among the causes, a digital economy that is growing much faster than the training system is able to provide. The underlying cause is a general lack of awareness of the variety of occupations offered by this industry and, as a consequence, latent ICT vocations, to which leading technology companies have dedicated their interventions during the DigitalES Summit 2022 congress.
