The market size and need for experienced professionals are projected to rise further as new businesses emerge and foreign investors stream in.

However, the focus of this rapid transition has been the widening gaps between academic knowledge and the practical skills needed today. Given the growing pace mismatch between industry and academia, this gap is expected to widen.
