The session mainly aimed at highlighting ways for boosting the defence equipment production sector at the state level, contributing to the national goal of “Atmanirbhar Bharat”.

Shri Vijay Rupani, Hon’ble Chief Minister of Gujarat, in a virtual keynote addressed, “Dholera’s seamless connectivity with the upcoming six lane access-controlled expressway, metro rail transit system, common corridor and International airport makes it a preferred destination for the Aero & Defence manufacturing cluster.”

Dr Rahul Gupta, IAS, Industries Commissioner, Government of Gujarat said, “The Government of Gujarat is a proactive and stable government committed to Ease of Doing Business with a slew of initiatives in labour compliances, land bank, availability of skilled labour, dedicated MRO facility and dedicated investor deck.”

Commenting on the development scenario and highlighting the investment opportunities at Dholera, Shri Hareet Shukla, IAS. Managing Director, Dholera Industrial City Development Ltd (DICDL) said, “Dholera is the most ambitious project of the Government of India. The industrial smart city has been designed keeping in mind the top five cities across the world and has passed all the stages of planning and is now ready for implementation. The city will be run by the City Integrated Operation Center (CIOC) that we have created and it stands out to be the best investment destination in the country today. Dholera is the Future, and the Future is here so come to Dholera, to Live, Plug and Play.”

Dholera, located approximately 100km south of Ahmedabad, Gujarat, is India’s Largest Greenfield Smart city being built under the Delhi Mumbai Industrial Corridor, to create a linear zone of industrial clusters. Planned for 920 square kms over 30 years, it is the largest land parcel across South Asia. A competent manufacturing destination for industries, especially the International and Indian Aviation Tier-1 and Tier-2 companies, Dholera has the right ecosystem for Aerospace clusters. With a vision of ‘Plug & Play’ approach, the comprehensive land parcels at Dholera are fully ICT enabled and comprehensive infrastructure is offered right at the plot level. To trigger the development of Dholera, an Activation Area is identified which acts as a catalyst for further investments attracting local and global investors. The Activation Area is spread across an area of approximately 22.5sqkm and has approximately 72kms of roads with an optimum mix of land use comprising of industrial, residential, mixed use, recreation and tourism. It also emphasized on its proximity towards the upcoming Dholera International Airport consisting of International passenger and cargo terminal with two runways for smooth operation. Futher expansion of possible industries and providing strategic location for ancillary industries Dholera also offers development of R&D facilities.

Speaking at the event, Air Marshal R K Dhir PVSM AVSM VM (Retd), Advisor, Defence & Aerospace, Government of Gujarat said, “India is self-reliant with Artificial intelligence, machine learning, data analytics, etc which is crucial at this valid juncture. Earlier we were dependent on PSUs for our Aero defence supply, but now MSMEs have contributed strategically and comprehensively in the defence ecosystem making India truly Atmanirbhar”.

“IAF and other defence services are committed to purchase most of the defence products from MSMEs and DPSUs to promote indigenization,” said Air Marshal Sandeep Singh, AVSM VM, Deputy Chief of Air Staff

Mr Piyush Tamboli, Chairman, CII Gujarat and Chairman & Managing Director, Investment & Precision Castings Limited said, “AERO India is one of the key events that attracts large investor from Defence & Aerospace sector, domestic as well as international. Gujarat State’s participation will definitely help in attracting investment into the state. This will also encourage industry in Gujarat to foray into this key sector. CII & SIDM is happy to partner with Government of Gujarat for this initiative and will work towards growth of the sector in the state.”

New first of its kind UK legal-tech recruitment platform aims to put an end to overseas worker scams

Published

on

new-first-of-its-kind-uk-legal-tech-recruitment-platform-aims-to-put-an-end-to-overseas-worker-scams

Unique UK-based legal technology platform, Immpact, helps unite the global talent market to fulfil UK skills shortages across healthcare, construction, engineering, life sciences and hospitality Immpact directly connects employers, recruiters and regulated legal experts with pre-qualified global talent – and aims to help eradicate profiteering job scammersREADING, England, May 28, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — A unique new legal-tech recruitment platform has launched in the UK to help put an end to overseas worker scams and directly connect UK employers and recruiters with pre-qualified overseas global talent. Immpact will help fulfil acute skills shortages across sectors including healthcare, construction, engineering, life sciences and hospitality, while ensuring full legal Home Office compliance.

The launch of Immpact follows over two years of advanced legal-tech development. Using the immigration law expertise of Founder and Managing Director, Jonathan Beech, and his team of specialists, the platform will help unite a previously disconnected global talent market with under-resourced UK employers and transform global workplace migration. Immpact has also been developed through discussions with hundreds of employers, industry bodies and overseas talent.
With job scams – from fake jobs to illegal fees for sponsor licences – ongoing, particularly in the social and healthcare sector, Immpact will ensure only pre-qualified talent, employers and recruitment firms are placed on its platform following stringent multi-layer checks. This will ensure that all jobs and talent are qualified and genuine along with thoroughly regulated employers and recruiters, to provide a global marketplace for talent.
Jonathan Beech, Founder and Managing Director of Immpact, said: “Through my existing business running Migrate UK, I’m acutely aware of the issues that UK employers and recruiters are having in trying to fulfil talent shortages across sectors such as care, healthcare and life sciences. I also regularly hear terrible stories of genuine overseas job hunters being ripped off in their home countries or the UK by job scammers, often running to thousands of pounds.
“I knew there had to be a better way to match pre-qualified overseas talent with genuine work opportunities and responsible UK employers – effectively a ‘talent’ match-making site which is designed to eradicate scammers to provide a global, trusted marketplace for talent.”
Following the latest government immigration rule changes, overseas recruitment costs are continuing to rise for businesses struggling with talent shortages. From 4 April 2024, the minimum salary for entering the new skilled visa worker route for the first time increased by 48%, from £26,200 to £38,700 a year. There are different rates for those already holding a skilled worker certificate of sponsorship prior to this date and discounts are available for key shortage roles on the Immigration Salary List (ISL).
Immpact will benefit employers and recruiters by saving them time and money. Working with recruitment experts to analyse existing overseas recruitment workflows, Immpact has calculated that it will save 50% of the time involved in managing overseas recruitment, helping to cut down the time-consuming filtering of applications traditionally needed.
For employers traditionally looking to recruit overseas applicants, previous data from industry recruitment software specialists show that 30% of overseas applications are rejected as they do not have the right to work, while 64% are rejected due to CVs being unclear or requirements not being met. This leaves just 6% of applications remaining, which results in about 2% then being interviewed. Immpact will automatically present only suitable pre-qualified applications to employers or recruiters, eradicating wasted time on unsuitable or unqualified applicants.
Beech continues: “Following thousands of hours of development and utilising the latest advanced technology which can adapt to evolving Home Office requirements and procedures, we’re proud to launch Immpact. Our unique new platform takes care of the entire process – from pre-qualifying processes, searching and shortlisting, down to arranging interviews, successful appointments, onboarding, the provision of regular content and guidance, and access to regulated immigration legal professionals.
“Our new technology will transform global migration for both UK organisations and businesses struggling to recruit and global talent looking to work in the UK. Immpact has been thoroughly tested at every stage and is both user-friendly and, crucially, compliant, so qualified overseas applicants and UK employers and recruiters can be confident that only genuine UK jobs and overseas applicants match and proceed. Quite simply, we want Immpact to simplify the whole migration process by putting the right talent in the right place at the right time, and for UK employers to fulfil critical talent shortages which will help them not only survive, but thrive.”
The platform has a free trial or low-cost subscriber options for search-matching and more for employers and recruiters. For talent, the platform has zero costs for creating a profile, using the pre-qualifying tools or searching for opportunities. For further information visit www.immpact.ai.
