The Future of Talent & Skills

25/3/2025

Comments

 
​We are looking forward to attending Innovate UK's Talent & Skills Connect Annual Conference in Manchester on April 3, 2025. This conference builds upon the discussions from the Partner Celebration Event in September 2024, particularly the critical need to encourage young people to pursue careers in innovation and ensure equitable access to STEM opportunities.

At Green Bean Studios, we annually offer work experience and placement opportunities to students across various academic levels, from high school to postgraduate studies. In 2023, we were pleased to host our first doctoral (Ph.D.) student.

​​Our commitment to providing these opportunities is driven by their significant impact. The World Economic Forum's "Future of Jobs Report 2025" indicates that approximately 39% of workers' existing skills will need to evolve or will become obsolete between 2025 and 2030. This underscores the necessity for adaptability, resilience, flexibility, and a growth mindset in the face of changing work environments. Without these opportunities, young people risk being left behind.

As a sustainable children’s entertainment IP brand, we have prioritized sustainable materials and production methods since our inception. This year, we are enhancing our creative innovation at Green Bean Studios, which is essential to supporting our mission of environmental protection and carbon emission reduction. For example, a Ph.D. student from Lancaster Environment Centre  assisted our team, helping us to improve the strength and durability of the sustainable materials used in our collection, to demonstrate the feasibility of producing high-quality eco-toys on a large scale

We are dedicated to demonstrating that eco-friendly toys can be economically produced at scale, enabling children to play confidently, learn, and embark on imaginative adventures. We are proud to contribute to the reduction of carbon emissions by exclusively using sustainable, recyclable, or biodegradable materials in our products and packaging.
