  Outsourcing back on the agenda in region
  21 May 2011
 
 
  Dubai Outsourcing can be a touchy issue. In the US it's about jobs being lost in the local economy to outsourcing bases in India. If the same argument is repeated in India, it would have businesses bristling at the criticism and arguing that it represents an assault on free market forces.

In the Middle East, outsourcing has had a limited audience even though many in the tech industry have spent years talking up its virtues. With the downturn, even the talk subsided as businesses were looking for all possible ways to cut spending.

Now, with regional economies returning to some health, outsourcing is back on the agenda. Last week, an Arab Outsourcing Conference was held in Dubai.

Gaurav Gupta, managing partner at India's Everest Group, was a speaker at the event. He gives his thoughts on where outsourcing stands in the Middle East.
