Offshoring : free breakfast briefing 

Thursday 20 March 2014, 8am to 9.30am

Offshoring is all about access to talent, speed of delivery, time and cost savings and more

Find out more about it, how it can work for you, and whether it should be part of your growth plans

As far back as 2003, Gartner stated, “It's big, and there's no turning back. Everybody is either doing it, planning to do it, or should be doing it”, and this statement still holds for offshoring.

But, you might ask:
  • Is it right for me as a small or medium sized business?
  • Isn't it just for software firms or those awful call centres?
  • How do I make it work for me?

These are just some of the questions you should be asking, AND answering, before embarking on any offshore journey.

Talk to the experts to find out more
