The IT outsourcing market in Romania is set to grow over the next years, after reaching a value of EUR 380 million in 2012, excluding license exports, according to a survey carried out by IDC for The National Software Industry Association (ANIS).
“Romania is an acknowledged regional leader in software development and in late years has been ranked by important consultancy firms on top positions among the countries that are providers of IT outsourcing services . Some of the ingredients that have made Romania a very attractive destination on this segment are the technical abilities, a passion for programming, a culture of open communication, excellent language skills and last but not least, one of the most developed communication infrastructures,” said Sorin Gavanescu, vice-president ANIS and head of the outsourcing area.
IT services generate 60.2 percent of this turnover, BPO (business process outsourcing) services generate 26.8 percent while research& development represent 13 percent.
