Plovdiv will host the Second Annual Business Forum "Outsourcing Destination Bulgaria"

On 10 September 2015 Municipality of Plovdiv jointly with InvestBulgaria Agency is organizing its second one-day Business forum "Outsourcing Destination Bulgaria". The city is establishing itself as the second largest center of investments in the sector of IT and outsourcing business process in Bulgaria, after the capital - Sofia.

The main objective of this year’s event is to continue the discussions on the human capital and the necessary competences, the cooperation between IT and outsourcing business and the educational and academic institutions, as a prerequisite for construction of an entrepreneurial ecosystem. In this regard will be discussed the pressing issue of the policy of attracting talents outside the EU.

The forum will be attended by professionals with deep insights on the topics, including representatives of the central and local government and branch organizations and, last but not least, representatives of leading companies, who will provide feedback on what it means to do business in Plovdiv and in Bulgaria, in general.

Municipality of Plovdiv and Industry Watch are the organizers of the forum in partnership with InvestBulgaria Agency, Bulgarian Outsourcing Association, Bulgarian Association of Software Companies, ICT Cluster Plovdiv and Bulgarian Association of Information Technologies.

A complete program of the forum in terms of panel topics, information about the speakers and a registration form can be found at: http://outsourcing.plovdiv.bg/
