ATLANTA, September 7, 2012 – Monty Hamilton, CEO of Rural Sourcing is scheduled to speak on a panel at the Gartner Outsourcing Summit titled: “Made in America: Rural Outsourcing = Cost Effective Quality Services.” The panel discussion will be held Tuesday, Sept. 11th at the Gaylord Palms Resort in Orlando, FL.
The rural sourcing panel seeks to explain how the industry began as a way to get people back to work in rural towns, but has since evolved into an industry that leverages a previously passed-over workforce to help American companies compete in a global marketplace. Rural outsourcing is a key component of our nation’s onshoring or “insourcing” efforts to bring jobs back to America.
Topics planned for discussion include: why rural outsourcing is a great benefit to buyers of IT outsourcing services and to rural communities, what differentiates onshore outsourcing from offshore counterparts, and the value added by utilizing onshore resources over offshore.
