MONTEGO BAY, Jamaica — Island Outsourcers/itel-BPO Solutions, Jamaica Promotions Corporation, Barnett Tech Park and ADS Global have partnered to represent Jamaica at the upcoming Nearshore Nexus 2014 as a Gold Sponsor, which is taking place at Jersey City Hyatt Regency on Tuesday, April 8.
Nexus is the premier outsourcing conference focusing on the Caribbean & Latin America IT and BPO services. Given that the global outsourcing industry is in the midst of a seismic readjustment, Nexus 2014 will assemble the thought leaders in global business services while using an 'Americas-centric' analytic lens to generate business-specific knowledge and dialogue about the opportunities, risks and advantages of developing strategic relationship in the Americas.
The event will feature a "Jamaica in Depth" session, which will highlight Jamaica as the outsourcing destination of choice for companies looking to expand their operations and increase their global competitiveness. The speakers will include: Yoni Epstein — Chief Executive Officer of Island Outsourcers/itel-BPO Solutions, Dr Christopher Tufton — Former Minister of Industry Investment & Commerce & Director of Business Development at Barnett Tech Limited, Ron McKay — CEO of ADS Global and Claude Duncan — VP of Investment Promotion at Jamaica Promotions Corporation. The featured session on Jamaica will provide first-hand insight and gain high-value exposure for the industry highlighting Jamaica's very attractive value propositions to the global BPO market: skilled workforce, competitive costs, attractive geographic location, cultural affinity and strong government support to industry development.
As Jamaica is poised to double the size of the ICT/BPO industry by 2016, it is critical that we position ourselves as the prime outsourcing destination for companies with English-based clientele and highlight Jamaica's ability to undertake businesses from companies in the United States of America, Canada and other near-shore markets. "Nexus 2014 is a major event that will help us to build our reputation globally and to share our competitive advantages and capabilities," said Epstein, CEO of Island Outsourcers/itel-BPO Solutions.
