Goa to bridge gap between manpower and IT industry requirements: Minister

Goa’s Information Technology Minister Rohan Khaunte has said the state government will work towards bridging the gap between the manpower availability and the industry’s requirements in the sector.

Khaunte on Wednesday chaired a “brain storming session” with the academia, IT industry and government officials in Panaji to understand the gap existing between the manpower and the industry requirement.

“All stakeholders will be taken into confidence to design a solution to bridge this gap. While we are inviting more investment in the IT sector, we have to also understand whether there is skilled manpower to cater to the requirement or not,” he said.
