Essence of the Session : Topic :

Its said that its a bitter-sweet moment for an entrepreneur when he realizes that he needs to scale up. For a while he can feel proud that the business is ready to take off, there is tremendous anxiety about the accompanying change. The burgeoning customer base can no longer be serviced without bringing in new unfamiliar hands. Failure to scale up would most likely otherwise lead to compromising quality. Systems need to be put in place to combat the chaos that reigns as the business begins to burst out of the confines of the basement or a garage where it all began.

The NASSCOM’s annual India ITES-BPO Strategy Summit 2007, the country’s premier conference on the rapid growth industry, will take place in Bangalore from 6 - 7 August 2007.

Besides logging in a radical growth of around 32 percent and notching up revenues of around US$ 8.3 billion in 2006-07, the Indian ITES-BPO industry also matured in terms of the services it began providing to global clients. From a situation where ITES-BPO organizations were predominantly into basic data entry tasks, today, the industry has graduated to a high proportion of voice-based services and a range of back-office processing activities.

The industry is witnessing an increasing emphasis on the cost-plus, additional strategic levers that it can deliver include innovation of the underlying business process being outsourced, improved competitive positioning, managing customer expectations, elevation of the strategic role of the retained organisation, optimal resource allocation, support for globalisation of their businesses, and technology support and access.
