As this article from SHRM’s HR Magazine Spring 2023 edition explains, digital wallets and verified credentials are revolutionizing the labor market.

As this LinkedIn News India article explores, expectations of how we share our skills and expertise are changing and ‘technology will make (and break) job opportunities’.

In today’s Velocity Network podcast, you can hear Aon’s Tarandeep Singh’s presentation from the recent India IT Services Ecosystem launch event.

“InformData is a recognized leader in traditional resume verification data methods and is committed to being on the cutting edge of innovation for alternative methods, such as Velocity, to streamline the process for both consumers and the those who use this information to determine eligibility for hiring, leasing, access, etc. We look forward to sharing our industry expertise and learning from other innovators to solve the inefficiencies of manual verification.”

Meeta Karanth is Vice President of foundit, formerly known as Monster APAC & ME. In this podcast conversation with Ollie Henderson, Meeta explains how verifiable credentials help organizations identify the right people and ensure they have the requisite skills.

“At scale, Velocity could create a flat talent world.”

Incredible insights from Aon’s Tarandeep Singh on today’s pod. In this conversation with Ollie Henderson, Taran shares why verifiable credentials can contribute to democratizing career opportunities.

“The work and vision of Velocity is both exciting and essential. Velocity and its members are quickly proving that it is possible to share career records through secure approaches to the benefit of students, workers, employers and others. Now we look toward the opportunity to rapidly expand its adoption and utilization in order to make the global marketplace more efficient, effective, and equitable. I’m honored to be joining the Board at this moment, and to work with the other members to help lead Velocity through its next phases of growth.”

Velocity’s CEO Dror Gurevich is speaking at Talview’s Instahiring 2023 event in Bangalore today (19th Jan), where he’ll be exploring how verifiable credentials power hiring at scale.

Velocity’s CEO Dror Gurevich is currently in India, meeting some of the largest employers and academic institutions who recognize how it will empower individuals to achieve their potential while removing friction for organizations which need to hire rapidly.

“I am honored to contribute to the direction of the Velocity Network Foundation by serving on the board. Our work with Velocity and other credential networks leads us to believe the entire industry is on the cusp of widespread adoption by both organizations and individuals. Velocity has shown tenacity with its iterative approach to meeting market demand where it is currently. This is the only true path to adoption at scale. I look forward to bringing our education ecosystem experience to the board and replicating the successes already being realized in the healthcare and financial verticals. I am proud to be a member of this group of outstanding leaders.”

We’re happy to announce Meeta Karanth of foundit as the latest expert speaker for our 8th Feb event focused on the India IT Services industry.
