| For the second year in a row, Gartner’s research named Ukraine as one of the top 30 countries for Offshore IT Outsourcing� In 2008 Gartner used 10 criteria to determine its Top 30 countries: government support and infrastructure, language and cultural compatibility, educational system and talent pool, cost, political and economic environment, global and legal maturity and intellectual property privacy and data security. The fact that Ukraine was included in the list for the second time proves its strive for excellence in providing outsourced services in a variety of areas. �On assessing 72 offshore locations, Gartner generated its new list of Top 30 Hot Spots for offshore outsourcing. According to Gartner, the analysis of offshore locations showed the dynamic growth of the outsourcing market and helped identify countries that are most likely to become credible alternative to such traditional locations as India and China.�Ukraine is listed in Gartner’s Top 30 among other EMEA countries (Europe, the Middle East and Africa) such as the Czech Republic, Hungary, Russia, Romania, Egypt etc. Gartner determined that Ukraine as well as other EMEA locations became a powerful nearshore center for outsourced services. Ukraine continues to attract its mature neighborhood such as EU and the Nordic regions as a high quality and low cost services provider.�TEAM International hopes that in the conditions of the economic turmoil Ukraine will grow as one of the most effective offshore and nearshore destinations in EMEA region and will continue to be listed among Gartner’s Top 30 countries in 2009. |
