As Cloud and AI continue to reshape industries, the demand for skilled technology professionals is growing. However, building a future-ready workforce takes more than technical knowledge alone. Businesses need people who can apply their expertise to real-world challenges, understand business needs and adapt to an increasingly technology-driven environment.
At Cloud Kinetics, we believe that bridging the talent gap requires closer collaboration between education and industry, practical learning opportunities and continuous skills development.
Following AWS Cloud & AI Day Hanoi 2026, Cloud Kinetics’ perspectives on these topics were featured across several Vietnamese media publications. The coverage highlights three important aspects of Cloud and AI talent development: the evolving skills landscape, the connection between education and industry, and the value of hands-on experience in building a technology career.
1. Understanding the AI Talent Gap: What Does the Future Workforce Need?
The rise of AI is changing not only how businesses operate but also what they expect from their workforce.
In an interview featured in Vietnamese media, Nguyen Vy, Group Chief Human Resources Officer at Cloud Kinetics, shared perspectives on the skills young professionals need to stay relevant in the AI era.
Beyond technical expertise, professionals need to understand business operations, communicate effectively and help organisations translate technology into practical business value. These capabilities are becoming increasingly important as AI adoption moves from experimentation to real-world implementation.

2. Bridging the Gap Between Education and Industry
Preparing future technology professionals requires more than classroom learning. Students need opportunities to connect academic knowledge with the skills, expectations and challenges they will encounter in the workplace.
Cloud Kinetics believes that stronger collaboration between educational institutions and businesses can help bridge this gap. Through practical exposure, industry engagement and opportunities to work with real-world technologies, students can develop the capabilities needed to transition more confidently into the workforce.
This perspective was explored in two Vietnamese media features discussing how AI and Cloud are creating new opportunities to strengthen the connection between education and industry.

3. From Cloud Intern to Full-Time Engineer: The Value of Hands-On Experience
Real-world experience can make a meaningful difference in how young professionals build their careers.
A feature by VietNamNet tells the story of Luong Tien Dung, who progressed from an internship to a full-time Cloud Engineer role in just three months at Cloud Kinetics.
His journey highlights the importance of taking initiative, gaining hands-on experience and actively learning beyond the classroom. It also reflects how practical opportunities, guidance and continuous learning can help emerging talent build a foundation for a career in Cloud technology.
