Bangalore Wannabes

In this BusinessWeek slideshow are listed the top 10 countries with the potential to emulate the offshoring success of India / Bangalore.
Some notes:
  • Though debated in India, the article proclaims that a successful outsourcing industry can alleviate the poverty situation of nations. Slow but a sure process. Can it have a positive impact on the well being of a whole big nation like India?
  • There is also a mention of the presence of “right mix of educated workers, low-cost wages, technology infrastructure, and governmental support” for the Bangalore success to be emulated. Very debatable is the governmental support to the success thats come about in Bangalore. Most claim & there is sufficient evidence to prove that this industry in India has flourished inspite of the government. Now this is a skill worth emulating by the other industries. If this happens, it would result in a much more broad based development of countries like India.
