Poughkeepsie, NY, November 03, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Joining forces to expand outsourcing in Brazil, the International Association of Outsourcing Professionals® (IAOP®) today announced a new partnership with the Brazilian Association of Information Technology and Communication Companies (Brasscom).
Brasscom has joined the global outsourcing group as a Strategic Partner and will take the leadership role in IAOP’s new Brazil chapter, providing a forum for outsourcing professionals in the country to network, share best practices and promote the industry.
IAOP Chairman Michael Corbett will speak on the growth of outsourcing in Brazil and the Latin America region as part of a panel of industry experts during the Brasscom Global IT Forum, Nov. 3-4, in São Paulo, Brazil.
With Brazil having the world's 7th largest economy and 1st in Latin America, the country's ability to innovate and its excellence in IT have played an important role in its fast-paced growth.
“Brazil is poised to win a larger share of the global market and offers enormous potential as an outsourcing market and destination,” said Corbett. “IAOP is pleased to join with this important industry group for IT professionals to continue to advance outsourcing across the Latin America region.”
IAOP and Brasscom will work together to further outsourcing, offshoring, shared services and related management practices, industries and its professionals, through conferences and events, publications and other member communications.
Brasscom also will lead the launch of IAOP’s new geographic chapter in Brazil with support from Ci&T, BRQ, Stefanini, CPM Braxis and Tivit.
IAOP has been expanding its presence in the region and Brazil will host IAOP’s second Latin American Outsourcing Summit in Fall 2012, building on the success of the premier event in Cartagena, Colombia that drew more than 300.
