Indian outsourcing companies were the first to reap the benefits of the large pool of educated, low cost, English speaking workers in India. Due to the combined demand from Indian and foreign companies, wages have risen and employee turnover has reached new heights. Now, Indian outsourcing firms have found it necessary to offshore themselves, often to more expensive locations in order to access talent that has the right mix of technical, cultural and linguistic skills to service their global clients.
This growing trend is a sign that large Indian IT/KPO/BPO outsourcing companies have embraced a global strategy and are prepared to challenge more established multinational consultancies on issues other than cost. This session examines this emerging trend.
