💼Millennials Lead Global Workforce Distribution

Millennials dominate the 2025 global workforce, accounting for over 30% of employees, followed by Generation X and Gen Z at 27% each. This generational mix underscores shifting workplace dynamics, with digital fluency and adaptability becoming crucial. Early retirement offers opportunities for workforce renewal, allowing organizations to bring in fresh talent and foster innovation while supporting experienced employees’ well-being and life goals.

🏭 Robotics Had the Highest Tech Investment

In 2023, US manufacturers directed the largest share of investment toward robotics and data analytics, signaling a strong push toward automation and digital optimization. Emerging tools such as additive manufacturing, AI, and digital twins show growing traction in advancing smart factories. This reflects a broader shift toward sustainable production systems, with initiatives like the Department of Energy’s Industrial Efficiency & Decarbonization Office supporting technology adoption to cut costs and emissions.

🤖 Information Sector Accounted for the Most AI Job Postings

In 2024, AI-related postings made up nearly 10% of jobs in information services. This reflects how AI is transforming knowledge-intensive industries while gradually expanding into traditional sectors such as manufacturing and utilities. The trend aligns with rising corporate adoption of automation to boost efficiency and reduce costs. The National AI Research Resource pilot program in the US is supporting this growth by broadening AI talent development and workforce readiness.
