Automation is creeping into workplaces faster than ever, and not all jobs are built to survive the shift. A recent analysis by WillRobotTakeMyJob ranks 100 occupations that face the greatest risk of being replaced by machines, alongside 100 that appear safer, at least for now. The study uses machine learning models trained on U.S. Department of Labor data to estimate how likely a job is to be automated based on the skills, knowledge, and complexity it demands. The results don't just show who might be vulnerable, but also who’s likely to keep a human edge in the age of artificial intelligence. Where Automation Hits Hardest Jobs that repeat the same steps each day, rely on limited decision-making, or involve manual labor in structured environments have the highest odds of being automated. Many of the top-ranked high-risk jobs involve physical tasks or simple data handling. Refuse and Recyclable Material Collectors top the list with a 100% risk score. They earn around $45,760 and face slow job growth. Packers and Packagers earn even less , roughly $34,800, and also hold a perfect risk rating. Like many warehouse roles, their work is predictable and easy to program. Machine Feeders, Offbearers, and Freight Laborers also fall into this category. They’re already being replaced by robotics in factories and fulfillment centers. Other occupations flagged include dredge operators , billing clerks , shoe machine operators , and title examiners . These roles typically carry lower wages, ranging between $35,000 and $55,000, and have little demand for personal judgment or creative thinking. Even jobs that once seemed secure, like credit analysts and customer service reps , now face high exposure. AI can quickly learn patterns in credit risk or handle scripted client queries, often more efficiently than a person can. # Occupation Risk level Job score Risk level (voted) Median wage (USD)

Technology isn't just changing the way these roles are done, it's starting to phase them out. The Safer Side of the Job Market On the flip side, some careers look far less vulnerable. Jobs that involve empathy, creative reasoning, or high-level strategy are proving harder for machines to replicate. Anthropologists and Archeologists are at the very bottom of the automation risk list, showing a 0% risk. Their work depends heavily on interpretation, deep context, and cultural insight. Emergency Management Directors also rank as safe. These professionals coordinate complex responses to disasters, which demand leadership, timing, and judgment. Security Managers, education administrators, and occupational therapists all show no risk of being automated, largely because their work hinges on decision-making and human interaction. Medical professionals appear repeatedly throughout the low-risk list. Roles like internal medicine physicians , speech-language pathologists , and clinical psychologists not only involve personal care but require careful assessments that can’t be replicated with code. Median wages for these roles are significantly higher, often exceeding $90,000 or even $200,000 in physician roles. . # Occupation Risk level Job score Risk level (voted) Median wage (USD) Projected

Specialties Teachers, Postsecondary 7.36% 7.7/10 38.46% 105,650 18.80% The pattern is clear: the harder it is to standardize a job, the harder it is to automate. What the Model Looks At The risk scores came from a model trained using job data from O*NET, a database maintained by the U.S. Department of Labor. The model evaluated more than just job titles. It looked at dozens of traits per role, things like originality, manual precision, persuasion, scheduling, and social awareness. These attributes were measured both in terms of importance and level of difficulty. Jobs that demand higher levels of abstract thinking, creative solutions, and interpersonal awareness were less likely to be marked as automatable. In contrast, tasks with fixed outcomes and clear inputs were labeled as easy targets. The developers behind WillRobotTakeMyJob also factored in user feedback and manually labeled edge cases. The final scores came from a regression model, which had a high predictive accuracy of over 91%. Lessons for the Working World For workers, the list isn’t meant to cause panic. But it should raise a flag. If your role sits high on the risk chart, it might be time to rethink what you bring to the table. Learning new skills, cross-training, or moving into roles that require more thinking and less repetition could help with long-term career survival. It’s also worth watching how companies use automation. Some may swap out workers for cost savings, while others might keep people in place but shift them into oversight, coordination, or technical roles. Jobs won’t vanish overnight, but the nature of how we work is already starting to tilt. A Look Ahead If there's one message from this data, it's that no job is guaranteed forever. But the ones that thrive will be those that keep people at the center, jobs that lean on our ability to think, connect, and adapt. Whether you’re packing boxes or planning evacuations, the best way to stay ahead of the machines is to keep doing what they can’t. Read next: Can AI Argue Better Than You? New Study Suggests It Might

OpenAI’s newest experimental model has crossed an unexpected milestone. At this year’s International Math Olympiad (IMO), the system solved five out of six problems, earning a gold-level score typically reserved for elite young mathematicians. It reached 35 out of 42 possible points, placing it within the top 10 percent of over 600 contestants worldwide. The Olympiad, first held in Romania in 1959, is considered one of the toughest math competitions. Students face two exams over two days, each lasting four and a half hours and containing three problems. These questions aren’t just about solving equations, they demand abstract reasoning, creative problem-solving, and a strong grasp of advanced algebra and pre-calculus. AI models have been tested on math before, but usually in lower-stakes settings. Just last year, researchers were using basic arithmetic and high school problems to measure model capability. This performance suggests the bar is now higher. Performance Under Human Conditions OpenAI’s model tackled the same problems as the human contestants, under the same time constraints. According to researchers involved, it showed an unusual ability to focus for long stretches and craft detailed, structured solutions, something that hasn't been easy for previous language models. Unlike DeepMind’s AlphaGeometry, which was built specifically for math, OpenAI’s system is a general-purpose language model. That makes this result more surprising. The model wasn’t tuned to master Olympiad-style problems; instead, it drew on broader training and still kept up. Also read: Can AI Argue Better Than You? New Study Suggests It Might Team members described it as capable of sustained reasoning, working through problems with a level of endurance and logic that pushed past previous benchmarks. According to internal commentary, the model didn’t just recall formulas or mimic surface-level patterns. It built full mathematical arguments, step by step. Predictions That Didn't Hold The result also turned a few expert predictions on their head. Just weeks before the competition, mathematician Terence Tao suggested that AI models might struggle to reach Olympiad standards. On a podcast appearance, he pointed to simpler contests as more realistic short-term targets. Similar doubts had come from other corners of the tech world. In 2024, investor Peter Thiel speculated that models wouldn’t be able to solve problems at this level for at least three more years. That forecast didn’t age well. Still, even with this breakthrough, OpenAI is not rushing to deploy the model publicly. CEO Sam Altman stated that this version won’t be released anytime soon. While upcoming systems like GPT-5 are expected to improve on current capabilities, they won’t feature this level of mathematical reasoning, at least not yet. Reactions from Across the Field The response has been mixed. AI researcher Alexander Wei, who helped lead the work, described the success as a major step toward more general reasoning skills in AI. But not everyone is ready to call it a turning point. Gary Marcus, a long-time critic of AI overhype, acknowledged the performance as impressive. At the same time, he raised questions about how the model was trained, whether the IMO organizers would confirm the results, and what real-world value such systems might bring. He also asked how much it cost to reach this level of performance, and whether that kind of investment could scale. As of now, the Olympiad’s organizers have not independently verified the model’s results. That leaves some room for scrutiny. But even without formal confirmation, the development signals how fast things are moving. A year ago, the idea of an LLM competing at this level seemed far off. Now, it’s suddenly on the scoreboard.

Montana surges into the Top 3. Michigan tumbles 28 spots. And Alaska ranks dead last. Again. Just six months after the last edition, the 2025 Data Security Index reveals dramatic shifts in how U.S. states protect (or fail to protect) their residents’ personal data. This report ranks states by how safe your personal information is, using real-world metrics that impact millions: Cybercrime per capita: How often residents fall victim to digital crimes like identity theft and online fraud Data breaches per capita: How frequently personal data is leaked, stolen, or exposed through hacks or mishandled records Data privacy laws: Whether a state has passed meaningful protections for how your data is collected, stored, and shared These factors are compiled into a Data Safety Score out of 100 , which determines each state’s position. And this year, the changes are anything but subtle. Key Findings Kentucky defends its title as the #1 safest state for your data , with the lowest cybercrime rate and strong laws. Montana jumped from #9 to #2 , after cutting its breach rate by more than half. Maine fell from #43 to #49 , now with the highest data breach rate in the country (1.07 per 100K residents). Alaska now ranks dead last (#50) , with the highest cybercrime rate (914.7 per 100K). Only 16 states score a full 6/6 for privacy laws . Nearly 20 states still have virtually no legal protections (1/6) . Top 10 States for Data Privacy in 2025 Where you’re safest online — and how these states earned their spot. Rank (2025) State Score Rank (2024) Change 1 Kentucky 98.20 1 Same 2 Montana 97.26 9 ▲ 7 3 Tennessee 97.04 3 Same 4 New Jersey 96.72 13 ▲ 9 5 Utah 96.54 7 ▲ 2 6 Iowa 96.48 4 ▼ 2 7 Texas 96.47 10 ▲ 3 8 Minnesota 96.18 11 ▲ 3 9 Virginia 95.52 5 ▼ 4 10 Connecticut 95.31 19 ▲ 9 1. Kentucky 2024 Rank: 1 → 2025 Rank: 1 ( Same ) Kentucky defends its crown for the second year straight, and it’s no fluke. The Bluegrass State has the lowest cybercrime rate in the country (134.4 per 100K residents), barely any reported data breaches (just 0.07 per 100K), and a perfect 6 out of 6 privacy law score . It's the rare case of a state doing everything right — from enforcement to legislation — making it the safest place in America for your personal data. 2. Montana 2024 Rank: 9 → 2025 Rank: 2 ( ▲ 7) Montana made a massive leap into the top 3 this year. What changed? It slashed its breach rate from 0.35 down to just 0.09 per 100K, one of the lowest in the U.S. And with a strong privacy law score of 6, this frontier state is proving that you don’t need to be coastal or high-tech to lead on data protection. A huge turnaround — and a wake-up call for other rural states. 3. Tennessee 2024 Rank: 3 → 2025 Rank: 3 ( Same ) Tennessee holds firm in third place by staying the course. The state cut its breach rate nearly in half — from 0.20 to 0.11 — while keeping a 6/6 privacy law score. Cybercrime rose a bit to 157.9, but remains well below the national average. All in all, a strong year for digital safety in the Volunteer State. 4. New Jersey 2024 Rank: 13 → 2025 Rank: 4 ( ▲ 9) New Jersey was one of the year's biggest climbers. Last year, its high breach rate (0.43) kept it out of the top 10. This year, that number fell to just 0.12 — a major improvement. Combine that with a solid cybercrime rate (165.3) and full legal protections, and you get a state that made privacy a priority — and saw real results. 5. Utah 2024 Rank: 7 → 2025 Rank: 5 ( ▲ 2) Utah climbed two spots thanks to stable data practices. It kept its breach rate impressively low at 0.09, while maintaining a strong privacy law score of 6. Cybercrime did rise to 196.3 per 100K, but Utah still compares favorably with other tech-driven states. The result: a quietly powerful performance. 6. Iowa 2024 Rank: 4 → 2025 Rank: 6 ( ▼ 2) Iowa actually improved in one key area — its breach rate dropped to 0.06 per 100K , the lowest in the country . So why the slip? A rise in cybercrime reports to 221.9 pulled its overall score down slightly. Still, with strong laws and the best breach control in the U.S., Iowa remains a digital safety leader. Also read: Workplace Priorities Are Shifting: Here’s What Skills Matter in 2025 7. Texas 2024 Rank: 10 → 2025 Rank: 7 ( ▲ 3) Texas made measurable gains by cutting its breach rate from 0.26 last year to just 0.09 — a notable improvement for a state of 30 million people. While cybercrime sits at 199.3 per 100K, Texas maintains a full legal framework (6/6), keeping it competitive with other large states like California and Florida. 8. Minnesota 2024 Rank: 11 → 2025 Rank: 8 ( ▲ 3) Minnesota quietly worked its way into the top 10 by keeping things stable and secure. With a cybercrime rate of 159.9 and a breach rate of 0.16, it sits right in the “low risk” zone — and backs it up with a perfect 6/6 privacy law score. It’s not flashy, but it’s effective. 9. Virginia 2024 Rank: 5 → 2025 Rank: 9 ( ▼ 4) Virginia slid four spots this year. The main issue? A steady breach rate (0.15) and rising cybercrime — up to 198.2 per 100K. It still maintains strong laws and better performance than many states, but didn’t improve fast enough to hold its ground as others surged ahead. 10. Connecticut 2024 Rank: 19 → 2025 Rank: 10 ( ▲ 9) Connecticut makes one of the most impressive climbs into the top 10. It lowered its breach rate significantly — from a sky-high 0.69 to 0.22 — and cybercrime stayed relatively contained at 155 per 100K. Add a full set of privacy protections, and this Northeast state has turned things around in just half a year. This is the second year DesignRush has published this ranking. View the 2024 Data Security Index here to see how states have improved (or worsened) since last year. 10 Worst States for Data Privacy in 2025 The places where your personal information is most vulnerable — and why it matters Rank (2025) State Score Rank (2024) Change 50 Alaska 63.08 49 ▼ 1 49 Maine 69.47 43 ▼ 6 48 Wyoming 79.41 35 ▼ 13 47 Arizona 80.05 47 Same 46 Florida 80.46 46 Same 45 South Dakota 80.62 50 ▲ 5 44 Wisconsin 80.99 41 ▼ 3 43 Kansas 80.99 28 ▼ 15 42 Michigan 81.49 14 ▼ 28 41 Massachusetts 81.58 48 ▲ 7 1. Alaska 2024 Rank: 49 → 2025 Rank: 50 ( ▼ 1) Alaska now ranks dead last for data privacy in the U.S. — and it’s not even close. The state’s cybercrime rate skyrocketed to 914.7 per 100K residents , by far the worst in the nation. Even though its breach rate is moderate, Alaska continues to offer minimal legal protection (scoring just 1 out of 6). With no legislative progress and rising criminal activity, it’s the most dangerous state for your digital life. 2. Maine 2024 Rank: 43 → 2025 Rank: 49 ( ▼ 6) Maine has the highest rate of data breaches in the country at 1.07 per 100K — a sharp increase from last year. While cybercrime levels are around average, the combination of widespread leaks and only basic legal safeguards (2 out of 6) leaves residents dangerously exposed. The state is in urgent need of modern privacy legislation. 3. Wyoming 2024 Rank: 35 → 2025 Rank: 48 ( ▼ 13) Wyoming took one of the steepest dives this year, dropping 13 spots. Its cybercrime rate jumped to 234.3 , and privacy laws remain stagnant at the lowest possible score. With no serious updates to its legal framework and growing threat levels, Wyoming is quickly becoming one of the riskiest states to live online. 4. Arizona 2024 Rank: 47 → 2025 Rank: 47 ( Same ) Arizona remains stuck at the bottom. It still has one of the highest cybercrime rates in the nation (265.1 per 100K), and while its breach rate is relatively low (0.09), the state has made no progress on legislation — holding steady at 1 out of 6 . Until that changes, Arizonans remain largely unprotected 5. Florida 2024 Rank: 46 → 2025 Rank: 46 ( Same ) Despite its booming tech economy, Florida continues to underperform on data safety. Cybercrime remains high (223.3 per 100K), and the state has not strengthened its privacy protections at all. With only basic enforcement and a legal score of 1, Florida offers little peace of mind when it comes to personal information. 6. South Dakota 2024 Rank: 50 → 2025 Rank: 45 ( ▲ 5) South Dakota made modest progress this year — its data breach rate dropped from 0.98 to 0.22. But that alone wasn’t enough to move it out of the bottom 10. It still lacks modern privacy legislation and remains vulnerable due to rising cybercrime (140.4 per 100K). Improvement is there, but the foundation is still weak. 7. Wisconsin 2024 Rank: 41 → 2025 Rank: 44 ( ▼ 3) Wisconsin continues its slow slide down the rankings. Its data breach rate is now 0.17 , and cybercrime is holding steady around 161. Still, with no meaningful privacy laws in place, the state has little to protect its residents from data misuse. It’s falling behind the national curve. 8. Kansas 2024 Rank: 28 → 2025 Rank: 43 ( ▼ 15) Kansas suffered a sharp drop this year. Both cybercrime and breach rates ticked up (now at 161.5 and 0.17 respectively), and its privacy law score is still at rock bottom. With no legislative action and increasing digital threats, Kansas went from mid-tier to red-flag territory in just six months. 9. Michigan 2024 Rank: 14 → 2025 Rank: 42 ( ▼ 28) Michigan had the biggest collapse in this year’s rankings. The state dropped a staggering 28 spots after its privacy law score was reduced from 5 to just 1 — a massive policy backslide. While its cybercrime and breach rates didn’t worsen dramatically, the lack of legal support erased earlier gains, leaving residents far more vulnerable than a year ago. 10. Massachusetts 2024 Rank: 48 → 2025 Rank: 41 ( ▲ 7) Massachusetts managed to climb a few spots, thanks mostly to slightly improved enforcement . But its breach rate remains very high (0.45) , and while it has better laws than most bottom-tier states (3 out of 6), they haven’t been enough to reverse course. The state is showing signs of momentum — but it's still far from secure.

WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump has signed a law to create a regulatory regime for dollar-pegged cryptocurrencies known as stablecoins, a milestone that could pave the way for the digital assets to become an everyday way to make payments and move money. The bill, dubbed the GENIUS Act (Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for US Stablecoins Act), passed in the House of Representatives by a vote of 308 to 122, with support from nearly half the Democratic members and most Republicans. It had earlier been approved by the Senate. The law is a huge win for crypto supporters, who have long lobbied for such a regulatory framework in a bid to gain greater legitimacy for an industry that began in 2009 as a digital Wild West famed for its innovation and speculative chaos. “This signing is a massive validation of your hard work and pioneering spirit,” said Trump at a signing event that included dozens of government officials, crypto executives and lawmakers. “It’s good for the dollar and it’s good for the country.” Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, in a statement, said the new technology would buttress the dollar status as the global reserve currency, expand access to the dollar economy and boost demand for US Treasuries, which back stablecoins. Stablecoins are designed to maintain a constant value, usually a 1:1 US dollar peg, and their use has exploded, notably by crypto traders moving funds between tokens. The industry hopes they will enter mainstream use for sending and receiving payments instantly. The new law requires stablecoins to be backed by liquid assets — such as US dollars and short-term Treasury bills — and for issuers to disclose publicly the composition of their reserves .

Microsoft said Friday it is making sure that personnel based in China are not providing technical support for US Defense Department systems, after investigative news site ProPublica revealed the practice earlier this week. Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth confirmed that work on Defense Department cloud services had been outsourced to people in China, insisting that the country will not have "any involvement whatsoever" with the department's systems going forward. "Microsoft has made changes to our support for US Government customers to assure that no China-based engineering teams are providing technical assistance for DoD Government cloud and related services," the company's chief communications officer, Frank Shaw, said in a post on X. ProPublica reported Tuesday that the tech giant was using engineers based in China -- Washington's primary military rival -- to maintain Pentagon computer systems, with only limited supervision by US personnel who often lacked the necessary expertise to do the job effectively. US Senator Tom Cotton asked Hegseth to look into the matter in a letter dated Thursday, and the Pentagon chief responded that he would do so. Hegseth then posted a video on X Friday evening in which he said "it turns out that some tech companies have been using cheap Chinese labor to assist with DoD cloud services. This is obviously unacceptable, especially in today's digital threat environment." "At my direction, the department will... initiate -- as fast as we can -- a two-week review, or faster, to make sure that what we uncovered isn't happening anywhere else across the DoD," he said. The armed group that led the offensive, Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, has since set up an interim government that has welcomed a steady stream of senior Western and Arab diplomatic delegations keen to help stabilize the country after 13 years of civil war. Sharaa in his speech said he would form a small legislative body to fill the parliamentary void until new elections were held, after the Syrian parliament was dissolved on Wednesday. He said he would also in the coming days announce the formation of a committee that would prepare to hold a national dialogue conference that would be a platform for Syrians to discuss the future political program of the nation. That would be followed by a "constitutional declaration," he said, in an apparent reference to the process of drafting a new Syrian constitution. Sharaa has previously said the process of drafting a new constitution and holding elections may take up to four years.

As the workplace keeps evolving with AI, remote teams, and digital shifts, what companies expect from job seekers is changing too. According to recently published global data from the World Economic Forum’s “Future of Jobs 2025” report, employers are placing a premium on one clear skill above all others: analytical thinking. The survey, which gathered responses from more than 1,000 companies representing 14.1 million workers worldwide, ranked the most valuable job skills in 2025. Nearly seven in ten employers (69%) identified analytical thinking as a core strength they want to see. In practical terms, that means workers who can examine problems from different angles, interpret data, and make decisions with sound judgment are now more in demand than ever. Adaptability and People Skills Dominate the Top Tier Not far behind analytical thinking, the ability to stay flexible and bounce back from setbacks is also high on the list. About 67% of respondents rated resilience, agility, and adaptability as essential, placing these traits just below problem-solving on the skills ladder. In third place, leadership and social influence received support from 61% of employers, reflecting the growing need for managers who can not only guide teams through transitions but also motivate them during uncertain times. Rank Skill Share of Employers Surveyed (%) 1 Analytical thinking 69% 2 Resilience, flexibility and agility 67% 3 Leadership and social influence 61% 4 Creative thinking 57% 5 Motivation and self-awareness 52% 6 Technological literacy 51% 7 Empathy and active listening 50% 8 Curiosity and lifelong learning 50% 9 Talent management 47% 10 Service orientation and customer service 47% 11 AI and big data 45% 12 Systems thinking 42% 13 Resource management and operations 41% 14 Dependability and attention to detail 37% 15 Quality control 35% 16 Teaching and mentoring 26% 17 Networks and cybersecurity 25% 18 Design and user experience 25% 19 Multi-lingualism 23% 20 Marketing and media 21% 21 Reading, writing and mathematics 21% 22 Environmental stewardship 20% 23 Programming 17% 24 Manual dexterity, endurance and precision 14% 25 Global citizenship 13% 26 Sensory-processing abilities 6% Creative thinking, cited by 57%, and self-awareness coupled with inner drive, recognized by 52%, rounded out the top five. Together, these traits show that companies are no longer just hiring for what people know, but how they think, how they handle pressure, and how well they connect with others. The modern workforce, it seems, must be not only smart, but emotionally agile and socially intuitive. As the World Economic Forum put it, today’s ideal employee is someone who blends “problem-solving abilities and personal resilience,” functioning as both an innovator and a collaborator in teams facing fast-paced change. Tech Fluency and Curiosity Emerge as Essentials Beyond interpersonal qualities, employers are paying close attention to how well candidates can keep pace with new tools and trends. About 51% of the companies surveyed highlighted technological literacy as a must-have. That includes a working understanding of digital platforms, software, and connected systems. Just as telling, 50% emphasized curiosity and lifelong learning, signals that employers want people who take initiative to stay up to date and evolve with the industry. Empathy and active listening tied with that same 50% mark, reinforcing that human connection still matters in a tech-driven world. The Middle of the Pack: Managing Talent, Data, and Services As businesses grow more complex, some employers are focusing on internal efficiency and data strategy. Talent management and customer service skills were each cited by 47% of respondents. Skills linked to AI and big data, seen by many as the backbone of the next industrial shift, landed at 45%, putting them on the edge of the upper tier. Other notable entries include systems thinking (42%), resource management (41%), and attention to detail (37%). These abilities speak to a rising demand for workers who can not only use tools effectively but also understand how different parts of an organization fit together. Even technical skills like quality control (35%) and cybersecurity (25%) made the list, though they lagged behind broader cognitive and interpersonal traits. Traditional Academic Skills Slip Behind Interestingly, older pillars of education such as reading, writing, and math were ranked relatively low, just 21% of employers saw them as vital for the roles of the future. Programming, once considered a golden ticket to tech careers, was only highlighted by 17%. Multilingualism, often seen as a global advantage, sat at 23%, tied with media and marketing-related skills. At the very bottom of the rankings was sensory-processing ability, named by just 6% of employers, suggesting that hyper-specialized traits are less of a priority for the general workforce in the near term. Hiring Isn’t Getting Easier, Especially for Job Seekers While the list may help employers identify what they want, the search for a job isn’t getting any simpler for candidates. A 2023 study by Aerotek revealed that more than 70% of job seekers felt the process was harder than they expected. And with the rise of AI-powered job scams — where fake candidates use AI to build convincing digital profiles — the process could grow even more confusing. That means genuine applicants must compete not only with each other but with increasingly sophisticated attempts at deception. In that context, the human qualities listed earlier — resilience, self-awareness, adaptability — could make a real difference in setting authentic professionals apart. Rising Stakes, New Rules In sum, the skill set employers want in 2025 goes far beyond hard technical know-how. The ideal worker is someone who can think critically, navigate pressure, lead others, and keep learning no matter how the job evolves. While advanced technology skills still matter, they’re most valuable when paired with emotional intelligence and a growth mindset. As expectations climb, candidates looking to stay ahead of the curve might ask themselves not only what they know, but how well they think, how quickly they adapt, and how clearly they can communicate. In today’s job market, being able to connect the dots may be just as valuable as knowing where they are. Read next: Beyond Safety: Location Sharing Becomes Emotional Anchor in Gen Z’s Daily Lives
BENGALURU: Indian IT services firm LTIMindtree is targeting near double-digit revenue growth by the end of fiscal 2026, its CEO said on Friday, a day after the company posted a narrow miss on first-quarter revenue. “If we can hit a run rate which brings us nearer to the double digit of year-on-year growth … (FY26) will definitely end up becoming better than FY25,” CEO Venugopal Lambu told Reuters. Nachiket Deshpande, President of LTIMindtree, told analysts on Friday that after the formation of a global large deal team, the company is winning more deals and adding to the pipeline. “We’re seeing the (deal) momentum continue at least in the next few quarters,” Deshpande said. On Thursday, the firm reported first quarter consolidated revenue of 98.41 billion rupees ($1.14 billion), missing estimates marginally as cautious spending by clients slowed growth in its key North America market to the lowest in over a year. Stubborn inflation, subdued demand, and uncertainty around U.S. trade policies are prompting clients to delay discretionary tech spending, clouding prospects of a recovery in India’s $283 billion IT sector. The company’s operating margin in the first quarter contracted by 70 basis points on-year, but expanded 50 basis points sequentially. Lambu on Friday said the company was also aiming to expand its operating margins by 100 basis points by the end of fiscal 2026. LTIMindtree’s shares fell as much as 2.4% on Friday before closing 1.36% lower.
