77% of Caymanian-held jobs at CEC member companies, are in sectors with high social returns and increasing global demand. "By putting skills first and prioritizing learning, CEC is enabling new industries to take root," the release by Dukharan reads.

CEC, through its Enterprise Cayman NPO, is a first-mover in private sector-facilitated education and training in the Caribbean, making it a leading force to boost youth participation in the economy. By offering training in specialised skills, Enterprise Cayman is helping to close the gap in higher education and earnings for Caymanians. "Through Enterprise Cayman we've set out to strategically support meaningful employment and entrepreneurial opportunities for Caymanians, by providing internship and mentorship opportunities, by hosting skill-building and career focused training, and by providing invaluable networking and community engagement opportunities," said Kirkconnell.

In 2023 individuals took advantage of 4,226 opportunities to participate in education, training, and career development events and, since launching entrepreneurial programming in 2021, Enterprise Cayman has worked with 41 new Cayman-born business ventures. "We're helping to develop a local talent pool that meets the demand of Cayman's growing digital innovation and technology sectors while, in parallel, offering exciting opportunities for individuals to launch new business ventures within an innovative business environment," said Kirkconnell.  

With CEC's new campus and state-of-the-art facilities, Signal House, the project "holds the promise of deep, continued economic impact," the report concludes.
