ADB’s Technology and Jobs podcast is a four-episode series focusing on the impact of technological change on labor markets – from an Asian perspective. We look at how the workplace is being transformed by technology and what that means for the workers of today as well as those who are going to be doing the jobs of the future. In Episode 1 host Erik Churchill and economists Elisabetta Gentile and Sameer Khatiwada discuss the scale of the challenge – the size of the workforce in Asia, what the region produces for the global economy, what its economic rise has meant for Asian countries themselves, and what an automated Asia may look like.

Produced by Richard Miron, Andrew Perrin & Erik Churchill
