OUTSOURCEWORLD SPONSORED TRADE MISSIONS
The World is still round….. until someone shows YOU how to make it flat.
OutsourceWorld, LLC is the premier producer of Global Services content, conferences and trade missions. For over 10 years we have engaged with thousands of executives who are responsible for global strategy and sourcing development within their organizations. We maintain direct relationships in over 25 countries with government leaders, industry associations and international business owners focused on the sourced services arena.
Through our Global Sourcing Forum+Expo in New York, and Global Sourcing Forum in London, we produce the industry’s largest and most content rich events, attracting over 1,500 sourcing executives each year. From CIO’s at Fortune 50 companies to the best analysts and thought leaders in the industry, we have developed a deep knowledge of the global sourced services industry.
Our long term relationships and neutral stance in the marketplace have earned the trust of buyers and sellers of sourced services alike. Leveraging these trusted relationships, we have been able to produce some truly unique opportunities where service providers, government officials and enterprise practitioners can have a free exchange of ideas in an environment designed to promote understanding.
In July of 2009, we produced our first Hosted Trade Mission to China with great success. OutsourceWorld senior executives were accompanied by fourteen (14) senior level executives from some of the world’s most recognizable firms for a 12 day, 2-city trip to China. As our guests in Shanghai and Zhengzhou, the executives were introduced to China in a way that few new entrants to China would ever see. Here are a few comments from the executives who traveled with us. They can summarize the experience far better than I can:
"This mission is unmatched in convenience. It provided access to service providers, Technology Parks, and Government representatives, in a manner that would have been very difficult for me to set up independently. 6 working days very well spent. I'm sure China will become the default additional location to India."
Senior VP IT Outsourcing, Fortune 500 Publishing House
"An invaluable experience for anyone looking to place work with a Chinese supplier."
EVP, Fortune 500 software firm
"…… an effective way to introduce western companies with some of the local Chinese companies. The meetings with business and political leaders as well as visits to business parks helped in better understanding the business and political drivers and provided an overview of the infrastructure in China."
VP of Sourcing, Major Canadian Financial Services firm
"OutsourceWorld is an experienced vendor in organizing business forums, and makes great difference in helping companies to find right partners literally over the planet. Great professionalism, hard working dedicated team."
CEO, Financial Services Software Firm
"Visiting potential software suppliers in Zhengzhou and Shanghai proved tremendously useful, allowing me to learn about many aspects of working with companies in China.
VP, Global Media Firm
"The experience for me was good from the perspective of meeting new people and making new contacts. I will use the contacts that I have made to help me in locating providers. I believe the trip was worthwhile. Thank you for the opportunity."
Head of Global Sourcing, Fortune 500 Pharmaceutical firm
"Thank you for making the China trip extremely valuable. As a corporate executive I really got to know China, the talent pool, the business culture, the provinces during the trip hosted by you and David. I would like to participate in future trips and I will recommend a very senior Investment Bank executive for the next trip."
Head, Global Sourcing, Fortune 100 Banking firm
PURPOSE
The purpose of this trade mission is to foster real business development and relationship building between Chinese and US based organizations. We believe the best way to do this is in person. Although conference calls, email and other distance-communication methods are valuable tools in maintaining established relationships, they cannot replace the face-to-face interaction that the Chinese culture requires in order to engender and build trust and long-term cooperation.
Leveraging our experience and established relationships in China, we create a unique experience for you as a potential delegate on our fully hosted and Sponsored Trade Missions. If you have a mandate to “get things going” in China, it could take you 3-5 years to organically build the necessary relationships to get things done. Contacts you will make with key industry executives and top Government officials by participating in this trade mission will reduce this time to a matter of weeks or months. This opportunity is exclusive and is offered to only 15 executives who will be fully sponsored.
HOW WE DO IT
We carefully qualify and select enterprise and service provider executives in the US and China respectively. We design our selection process to ensure a few critical elements on both sides of the mission:
