Argea's CEO to Speak at IAOP 2007 Outsourcing World Summit at Loews Lake Las Vegas

Princeton, NJ (PRWeb) January 31, 2007 -- Argea, an outsourcing and process consulting firm, announced today that Ram Iyer, Founder and CEO, will address the International Association of Outsourcing Professionals (IAOP) at the 10th Annual Outsourcing World Summit at the Loews Lake Las Vegas Resort, Las Vegas, Nevada, on February 20, 2007. He will speak on "Mid-market Companies and Outsourcing."

Mid-market companies have come to realize that they need to improve competitiveness to win in the global marketplace, which means attracting the best partners and tapping the best talent anywhere in the world, and rapidly synthesizing and deploying the new ideas toward new ways of doing business. While outsourcing is the overarching framework for achieving this, mid-market companies face unique challenges.

Iyer, a thought leader on outsourcing in the mid-market, writes a monthly column for Outsourcing Venture Magazine, and has written and spoken extensively on outsourcing and the mid-market in various forums. At the Outsourcing World Summit, he will speak on the unique challenges mid-market companies face in outsourcing and how service providers can overcome them.

Iyer said, "The future of American mid-market companies will depend, to a large extent, on their ability to adapt to -- and prosper from -- the forces of globalization. Outsourcing is one of he best and most practical ways for mid-market companies to reach that level of competitive maturity in the fastest time. However, while many mid-market companies seek to adopt outsourcing to improve competitiveness in the global marketplace, the actual solutions they are offered are not appropriate for their business size and infrastructure. At Argea, we understand these key differences and how they impact both the client and provider sides of outsourcing relationships. We have made it a strategic objective to bring successful outsourcing to more mid-market companies so that they can attain the same business benefits as larger companies."
