For the second consecutive year, Cebu has emerged as the number one “Emerging Outsourcing City” of the world.
Based on the latest report released by Tholons, a leading full-service strategic advisory firm for Global Outsourcing and Investments, Cebu bested other cities in the world like Shanghai and Beijing in China, Krakow in Poland, and Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam.
In its fourth year, Tholons not only lists/ranks the eight established and 50 emerging destinations, but also ranks the Next 10 aspiring cities ‘on the Tholons Radar.’
The report also provides relative scores of each of the cities for the six parameters of scale and quality of labor pool, cost, business catalyst, infrastructure, risk and quality of life, which are a part of the Tholons Location Assessment Framework.
The study views offshore destinations and location assessment from the perspective of the clients.
The Information Communication Technology (ICT) sector is now under pressure to improve its rank from number one emerging BPO (Business Process Outsourcing) destination in the world, to fully emerged BPO destination.
