Outsourcing
India versus China versus Eastern Europe versus . . .
– who will win the global sourcing championship?
- Description
A debate-led conference on the trends, opportunities and developments in the international outsourcing marketplace.
- Date
early November 2008
About the event
For many years India has been the undisputed champion of the outsourcing market. Now many new offshoring locations and suppliers have appeared with increasing capacity and skill levels including China, Vietnam, Egypt, Morocco, Russia and many others. Some suppliers are offering software developers for as little as $1 per day
Undoubtedly there are cost arbitrage opportunities, but what about IP issues, service levels or even language and cross-cultural skills? What about the longer term costs of managing these relationships? How easy or difficult is it to do business in some of these new destinations and how do you do it successfully?
Our conference will examine these issues as well as questions such as:
> Can India maintain its position as the world’s favourite outsourcing destination?
> Will China develop as a global outsourcing destination to rival India?
> Is there sufficient cost advantage in outsourcing to Central & Eastern Europe?
> What other countries are developing as competitive outsourcing destinations?
> Which destinations provide the best overall balance of service and cost for BPO, ITO, KPO?
> What are the main factors that influence successful outsourcing relationships?
> How does global sourcing affect the traditional point to point relationships between suppliers and customers?
> Is the political and media attitude to offshoring changing?
Our one day conference will provide expert experience, insight into the future plus opportunities to question panellists directly, share experience and network with other senior outsourcing professionals.
