Announcing The Outsourcing Institute’s Outsourcing 2.0 Road Shows

Sept. 21, 2009 - PRLog -- JERICHO, N.Y. - The Outsourcing Institute, a vendor-neutral professional association dedicated solely to outsourcing, today announced the launch of its Outsourcing 2.0  road shows.  Designed to help business professionals navigate the complexities of making the right outsourcing decisions, the road shows will be held in 20 cities over the course of 20 weeks. Each road show features educational presentations on key outsourcing trends, critical best practices with regard to procurement, negotiations, transition and governance for all forms of outsourcing.   A separate track within the program will help those who sell and market into this space better understand how to generate more business opportunities, differentiate themselves and increase their awareness.

Frank Casale, founder and CEO of The Outsourcing Institute, shared, “The Outsourcing Institute is the gateway to the outsourcing marketplace.  We’ve developed the largest network of outsourcing professionals in the world – more than 70,000 executives, practitioners and experts. Our role is to help educate buyers about their outsourcing options and our new road shows will deliver on that mission.”

The inaugural event will be held in London on October 8, 2009.  2009 dates for other cities are October 13 in Dallas, October 15 in San Francisco, October 29 in Miami, December 3 in New York City and December 10 in Chicago.  Subsequent events will be held in Washington, D.C., San Paolo, Boston, Toronto, Brussels and Beijing; announcements will be forthcoming shortly regarding events in Japan, India and Ukraine.

Casale observed, “Outsourcing has changed.  The process, the players, the options – the risks and rewards have all changed significantly.  We are currently in an Outsourcing 2.0 world, yet most are still outsourcing the old fashioned, 1.0 way.  Our mission with this aggressive road show schedule and program is to get the key members of the outsourcing ecosystem upgraded and, therefore, better equipped to accelerate their outsourcing transactions, lower their costs, and increase their outsourcing upside.”

Echoing this sentiment are the key thought leaders and contributors to this program and overall effort.   Contributing their time and resources are representatives from outsourcing, sales and marketing industry leaders such as 3forward, Booz Allen, DCI, The Delve Group, The Devon Group, Ingenia Group, Integrated Alliances, NelsonHall, Strategy Group International, Sylvan VI and Vantage Partners.
