In his keynote speech, Anthony Salcito, Vice President of Worldwide Education of Microsoft, said, "In our fast-paced technology-driven world, digital transformation is disrupting most industries, economies, and the way we live."

“With the rise of the fourth industrial revolution, it is critical for the next generation of students to be equipped for future jobs, where they will need to adapt to new ways of creating, collaborating and connecting. 

“This is where educators, optimising the use of technology, can transform teaching and learning to create immersive and inclusive experiences which inspire lifelong learning, and help stimulate the development of essential life skills.”
