Prefer Startup Daily Hex founder and CEO Jeanette Cheah Melbourne edtech HEX has launched a workplace simulation platform designed to help students gain practical experience as AI reshapes entry-level jobs. WorkSim puts learners in a simulated remote team, where they tackle business problems, communicate with stakeholders and use AI.
