CBC Technologies to promote Offshore biz


The Commonwealth Business Council has launched a new service - CBC Technologies – to promote Offshoreservices related to technology.

"The UK is seen as a gateway to Europe for many businesses. Over 400 Indian firms have set up operations in the UK in recent years and the Commonwealth comprises 54 nations, some with excellent capabilities to provide remote services to UK customers," Director General of the Commonwealth Business Council, Dr Mohan Kaul, said.

"CBC Technologies service is an important step in the development of CBC and it will allow the CBC to offer a world-class service in the field of offshore outsourcing advice and facilitation," he said.
"CBC has a completely different value proposition to the myriad of consultants offering outsourcing advice. We are entirely independent," said Managing Director of CBC Technologies, Anoop Singh.

"We have an excellent relationship with the 54 governments of the Commonwealth and most leading global corporations through our membership and we will also focus attention on the large Small and Medium Entrepreneur sector. They are the companies who need most help at present and we intend to offer a world-class service to the smaller players," Singh said.
The launch coincided with the one-day seminar jointly hosted by India Business Forum and Commonwealth Business Council here yesterday.

"India is leading the world in remote BPO services. This debate has moved far beyond the tired argument about call centers and jobs vanishing to India," said Chairman of the India Business Forum, Mahesh Ramachandran.
