The portal aims to support the market by promoting an active dialogue between all actors in the industry, to create a strong communication link between the public and private sector and to increase exposure among potential employees and partners, as well as to provide information on the Romanian outsourcing market as well as the global trends.
“It is very important that the outsourcing industry be supported by local, regional and international associations, but also by media channels. In the past six years, OutsourcingPortal has become the most important web platform in the Polish outsourcing industry. Now, on the sixth anniversary, thanks to our exclusive partner – NNC Services – OutsourcingPortal is launching officially in Romania. Together we will support the outsourcing industry to grow faster, to communicate better and to be more visible on the European outsourcing map,” ProProgressio Foundation President CEO Wiktor Doktor said.
