## Resource

London’s businesses are racing to keep pace with AI, but half feel their teams lack the skills to thrive in this new era—with a record 15% reporting major gaps. While 75% already use AI and only 5% plan to stay offline, 85% say it’s reshaped their skill demands, pushing for critical thinking and ethics. Companies are ramping up training investments, but looming job cuts and shrinking vacancies signal tough times ahead for mid-career roles as digital skills demand surges.
