Germany is facing a deepening shortage of skilled workers due to various political, historical, and economic factors. The ageing population is resulting in a long-term decline in the number of potential workers available to the labour market. This trend is already causing shortages in some industries and regions, with projections indicating a worsening situation in the future. According to a study by the
Institute for Employment Research (IAB)

sustaining the labour supply until 2060 would require an annual net migration of 400,000 individuals - now let that sink for a moment! This situation presents not just an economic challenge, but also an opportunity to innovate in how we attract and integrate skilled labour into the economy.
