Last update: 11 hours ago

STEM & Robotics Push: Education Minister Dr Michael Dowlath unveiled plans to expand STEM in schools, including digital tech, robotics and AI, as NIHERST and Shell hosted the inaugural FIRST Tech Challenge national tournament for students from nine secondary schools. Energy Sector Safety Shift: The Energy Chamber says it will phase out its Safe To Work (STOW) programme after the Government cancelled STOW certification for energy-sector access, arguing it had become a barrier for smaller firms. BPO Jobs Boost: Bill Gosling Outsourcing opened a purpose-built office in Trincity, creating 200 jobs and signalling further expansion in T&T’s nearshore outsourcing push. Food Supply Pressure: Broiler Growers Association warns of a chicken shortage tied to higher costs and foreign exchange challenges for suppliers, with depot limits possibly worsening availability and prices. Central Banking Watch: The Central Bank held the repo rate at 3.5% amid global uncertainty and subdued inflation. Regional Earthquake Readiness: UWI Seismic Research Centre urged preparedness after Venezuela’s major quakes, noting a small rise in regional seismic activity and stressing continued readiness across the Caribbean. Humanitarian Relief for Venezuela: Government launched a coordinated national relief effort with private sector and municipal partners following the earthquakes. Nutrition Labels Campaign: HNATT ran a “Flip The Pack” campaign to help consumers read nutrition labels as non-communicable diseases remain a major concern. AI Governance Blueprint: Criminologist-turned-AI governance professor Renée Cummings is preparing GOVERN™, an executive framework urging organisations to govern AI responsibly.
