Topics in Breakthrough explore the key principles of Martin’s Growth and Fairness Agenda, including:
- increased investment in small- and medium-sized enterprises,
- artificial intelligence (AI) and analytics tools that are easier-to-use and more widely adopted,
- government incentives that support workforce education and training, along with tax provisions that encourage investment in both tangible and intangible capital, and
- deeper engagement between business executives and their workforces, including a willingness to embrace new skills requirements and ways of working.
