Dubai-based Netlink announces participation in Gartner GlobalSourcing Summit '04 as Anchor Sponsor

GlobalSourcing Summit is one of the largest IT event that brings senior IT and business executives from Fortune 1000 companies, leading service providers, Gartner analysts together for in-depth discussion and analysis of what is needed to perform global sourcing successfully.

Commenting on the association, Mr. Akash Arora, Chief Technical Architect, Netlink said: "We look at our association with GlobalSourcing Summit '04 as a significant initiative as it would allow us to present both our credentials and product offerings to Senior IT and business executives from Fortune 1000 companies under one single roof."

"This initiative would further give impetus to Netlink's decision to foray into emerging regional markets," he said.

The concept behind the event is to bring senior-level decision makers together with industry experts and leading service providers to gain market knowledge, build and expand relationships, and do business in an uninterrupted setting.

Mr S. Satyajit, Chief Strategy Officer, Netlink, who would be attending the summit said. "We have always believed in pioneering a wide range of integrated technology solutions and recently restructured our business model to focus on advanced technologies which optimize business resources. This summit would offer us a good platform to share these initiatives with all the key influencers and decision makers in the space."

Netlink is in the process of expanding and strengthening its Dubai and regional operations with a view to cater to its growing client base and rising demand for innovative solutions.

As part of this plan and a significant move by the company, Netlink would be shifting its software development and outsourcing centre to the UAE from Gurgaon in North India. The move is aimed at offering its clients with a significant value proposition. Another critical factor attributed to this initiative is that, apart from the fact that organizations in markets such as Saudi Arabia are coming to realize the potential of call-centres, there also is ample multi-lingual skills available in the region.

Currently, the company's portfolio of technology solutions range from web services and integration, developing and marketing a range of next generation software and hardware products, integrated marketing and media marketing etc.
