Reaping the Benefits of Industry 4.0 through Skills Development in Indonesia Asian Development Bank

This report explores the implications of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) on the job market in Indonesia, where digital technologies are shaping the future of the food and beverage and automotive manufacturing industries.

These two industries have high relevance to 4IR technologies and are important to Indonesia's national employment, economic growth, and international competitiveness. They are also likely to benefit considerably from the transformational effect of 4IR if there is adequate investment in jobs, skills, and training. The report is part of series developed from an Asian Development Bank study on trends in skills demand in Cambodia, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Viet Nam.
