CATA CEO, John Reid (in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada), interviews Mike Kelly, Dean, WLU on the need to address the low uptake of mobile and other innovative technologies by Canadian enterprises, and in particular meeting the challenge of developing new skills training models where Canada can lead or follow.

As context, Canada has made significant progress in science and technology research and education. Yet, it is increasingly recognized that unless we also develop the management talent and business practices to sustain and grow technology enterprises, the full economic benefit of these investments is unlikely to be realised.

The ON AIR interview is part of the Digital Adoption Campaign, launched by CATAAlliance and the ICTC Council to gain insights from thought leaders on how to accelerate the rate at which organizations adopt digital technology as well as help address the need for building requisite digital skill to foster adoption.
