Neelie Kroes Vice President of the European Commission explains the job opportunities offered by the Internet and ICT

Neelie Kroes She is the vice president of the European Commission in charge of the Digital Agenda and Telecommunications. Their participation in the European Union is very active in the process of facilitating the Internet to be the means in which productive activities can be developed in Europe by promoting new jobs, new ways of doing and demanding professionals with knowledge and ability to adapt to the challenges of future.

I recommend watching the six-minute video, in English with English subtitles, to learn about Neelie Kroes's impressions of what the opportunities offered by a growing and expanding sector such as Internet and ICT (information and communications technologies). The challenges are for everyone: boys / girls, men, women and also for the elderly who can benefit, for example, from advances in health. They will need specialists, with knowledge, with the capacity to create companies and with international projection. And there is a lot of funding available to boost these activities. Next the video:

In the image that illustrates the article you can see Neelie Kroes with Zaryn Dentzel, the CEO of Tuenti, on a recent visit to Spain. In addition Zaryn with other European businessmen and with the support of Neelie Kroes, have published a manifesto to the national leaders of Europe to boost entrepreneurship and innovation. In addition to Zaryn, the signatories of the open letter are Daniel Ek and Martin Lorentzon (Spotify), Kaj Hed (Rovio), Lars Hinrichs (HackFwd), Reshma Sohoni (Seedcamp), Joanna Shields (City Tech), Boris Veldhuijzen van Zanten ( The Next web) and Niklas Zennström (Atomic). Many of these companies offer products and services that our children use and have enormous travel potential.

Surely in a few years these impulses and initiatives can be collected by our children, still students, although they will have to prepare very well and be very attentive to be able to train and respond adequately to these demands. Its labor market is not going to be only Spain, its labor market is going to be Europe and the World, so it is convenient to know what the environment is that awaits them and that it is already being built.
