The latest in the TechFire series of seminars will discuss the issue of outsourcing, asking if a new style is emerging that facilitates innovation with a technology partner.
Reports of late have suggested that many organisations are looking for closer ties with outsource technology partners that facilitates the technology partner in making suggestions to the business that can improve processes, identify efficiencies and drive innovation.
This new style of outsourcing relies on closer physical ties, both geographically and temporally, meaning that outsourcing is coming closer to home.
In association with Comtrade, TechFire will examine this issue to see if it is right for Irish organisations.
The speakers begin with Dejan Ćušić, program manager, Comtrade, who will present the results of Comtrade’s recent survey, taken among IT professionals in Ireland, on the subject of the new style of technology partnership.
