Technical Talk: 2025 State of Tech Talent Report
Speaker: Anna Hermansen, Senior Manger of Research, The Linux Foundation
Description: In the 2025 State of Tech Talent Report, LF Research and LF Education investigated trends and challenges in key technical areas this year including AI. The report is based on findings from a survey distributed to hiring and training managers across the LF community. This year's report found that hiring managers plan to expand their technical workforce due to AI, but face critical talent gaps in this technical area, as well as in cloud and cybersecurity. To address this gap, employers see the value in upskilling, particularly as hiring and onboarding represent costly alternatives. In this session, Anna Hermansen will be reviewing the key findings of this study and takeaways for the developer and hiring communities to prepare for the transformational effects of AI.

Mark your calendars and join us in shaping the future of open-source technology in our community. Looking forward to seeing you soon!
