Demand-Supply gap for talent has been a challenge for some time now. In the IT sector, despite various corporate initiatives, availability of ready talent is a problem. A lot of time and investment is done to get the students to be ready to deliver.

Education factories match demand & supply by producing qualified people, though skills have taken a back seat. Corporate needs Skills of Quality, Productivity and Sustainability. Only aspirants without skills are creating a huge talent shortage especially in niche markets like Pharma & Bio tech.
