High-ranking visit: ICUnet.Group welcomes the Indian Consul General Shri Shatrughna Sinha and Amir Bashir, Consul for Trade, Education & Information

A 600% increase in unfilled vacancies in Germany – this is what the BMWK predicts for the period from 2023 to 2030: 5 million vacancies due to the baby boomer generation increasingly retiring while the birth rate decreases.
