The topic of this-year KIOF is “Company Management by Textbook, Corporatization and Owner’s Trap”
However, on the world economy development, the decrease of unemployment in the US, the digital transformation of companies around the world, the Ukrainian outsourcing industry feels quite good.
▶ The predicted amount of IT export in 2018 equals to 4,5 billion US dollars.
▶ The contribution of the IT-industry to the total Gross Domestic Product amounts to 3,34%.
▶ The IT-companies, running their business in Ukraine, have paid 16,7 billion UAH of taxes.
▶ More than 130 thousand specialists are employed in IT industry.
The American and European business is being developed and transformed into the digital era and it can no longer provide itself with local IT-specialists. There appear a lot of requests, which entrepreneurs are ready to solve on the cost of remote teams.
It seems that any business-oriented project manager with 4-5 year experience in IT outsourcing industry is able to take 2-3 projects and to gather a team of 10-15 developers. Though the further growth of a company and its development still remains without solution.
The lack of comprehensive business education, the vision of the IT landscape in the global economy, the experience of building business processes does not allow all new and old small companies to develop harmoniously and to see the prospects in future.
For that reason, the major issues of the conference will be practices of building the right IT outsourcing businesses according to the best knowledge.
We shall discuss:
✔ How to unload and plug the holes of the owner of IT-outsourcing company?
✔ At which stage what processes are needed for successfully operating IT-service company?
✔ What is happening on the world IT-service market?
✔ Is tough company specialization possible for technology, domain, market and product?
✔ Examples of service-product companies that “took off” in 2017.
✔ How to create a sales process in the technological niche at the average company?
✔ Organizational changes that are driving growth and passage to new forms of existence.
The objectives of the conference:
➤ To explore the experience of the outstanding companies before the change to high-productive players on the global market.
➤ To discuss potential threats to the domestic talent market and the existing legal and tax principles of work.
➤ To open new opportunities to the most productive companies’ owners.
➤ To promote experience exchange among the owners of IT-service and semi-product companies.
For the past 9 years, The Outsourcing Forum gathers the active part of the outsourcing industry in Ukraine and serves as a ground for the experience exchange and discussion of “urgent” issues.
Only 11 our conferences were visited by more than 2000 participants. As a result of their participation in the previous conferences, the members point out the increase in the number of employees at their companies, M&A relating agreements, the increase of customers’ flow, the improvement of their own organizational structure and creation or improvement of a company development strategy.
The key speakers of the conference are: expert-practioners, owners and directors of IT outsourcing companies, representatives of companies-customers of outsourcing services, consultancy and product companies.
