VOICES: GEOFF MULGAN

TITLE
Founder and director of Demos think tank. 36.

CONTRIBUTIONS
Mulgan advises Prime Minister Tony Blair on positioning Britain in the wired economy. People and societies, he warns, must upgrade skills or slip behind. Hence, his ''University of Industry,'' a national lifelong learning program.

IN HIS WORDS
The new economic ''paradigm is only half true. Knowledge-based industries are creating a huge number of jobs. But many service jobs are not that different from 100 years ago.''
