Brazil IT presents success case studies at the Gartner Outsourcing Summit 2006
April, 3 2006
Orlando - Brazil IT, a group of Brazilian Information Technology services and software development companies, is participating at the Gartner Outsourcing Summit 2006 in Orlando, April 3rd to 5th, where they will present three case studies to showcase Brazil's excellence in the extremely competitive global IT outsourcing industry.
Along with other leading international providers, executives from Brazil's Stefanini IT Solutions, ActMinds and DBA will present their success cases in the development of products and services for global heavyweights such as Siemens Mobile and Idera. The three companies will make their presentations before a select group of CIOs, analysts and decision makers from companies that are focused on expanding offshore sourcing partnerships and seeking an exchange of knowledge and best practices with their peers.
Backed by a strong push by the government to increase the industry's exports, Brazilian IT companies are focusing on the US market. Brazil's $15 billion IT industry is the world's seventh largest, making it only slightly smaller than India's. Today, Brazil exports only a small fraction of its IT industry's production, which analysts consider to be a strong sign of internal market maturity and demand. However, the government and private sector are investing heavily in global promotion of Brazilian capabilities with the goal of increasing exports to $2 billion by 2007.
Many analysts believe that Brazil can be one of the next main contenders in the global rush for competitive IT outsourcing for US companies looking to reduce costs while accessing a highly qualified labor force, due to its geographic and time zone proximity to the US, business and cultural compatibility, non-existent geopolitical risk, modern telecommunications infrastructure, favorable business environment and pioneering solutions to a broad array of economic sectors such as banking, healthcare, e-gov and commercial automation.
