A global Perspective
The Kenya ICT Board
Playing Kenya ICT Board in the global
context
•
The fastest growth in the next few years will come from
emerging markets, the group of countries that IDC calls
BRIC+9
– Brazil, Russia, India, China
– followed by Mexico, Poland, Turkey, Argentina, Columbia,
Saudi Arabia, Thailand, UAE, and Vietnam
•
We need to get Kenya on this reference
•
Much of the work of building Kenya’s ICT industry will be
about
– Developing our local capacity
– Marketing the country as an ICT investment destination

Top 10 Global Outsourcing predictions
•
US Dollar will continue to fall globally
–
•
Consolidation Ahead
–
•
It is expected that large US companies will avoid announcing
substantial agreements or employee reductions during 2008 due
to the US elections, although outsourcing is not a major elections
subject
Beyond India
–
•
Big and medium sized players will be shopping for smaller and
more strategic players to buy
Caution
–
•
Kenya’s ability to attract outsourcing dollars long term will be
influenced by among many factors our labour competitiveness in
dollar terms
As the Indian market continues to be impacted by wage inflation,
talent attrition and infrastructure strains, clients are looking
outside the subcontinent for alternatives, say experts
Flight from the Big Cities
–
In India and beyond, outsourcing hot spots have become
oversaturated, so many providers and customers are looking to
set up shop elsewhere.
The Kenya ICT Board
Top 10 Global Outsourcing predictions
(cont..)
•
Transformation
– Beyond cost cutting and efficiencies. Outsourcers globally
are going to pitch themselves as partners in business
transformation.
•
Remote Infrastructure Management (RIM) Grows Up
– managing servers, databases, networks and security, and
applications from offsite. This represents an important
opportunity once the fiber is in place. Kenya needs to skill up
to take consider playing here. Also an opportunity for local
outsourcing here
•
Change in Call Centre Management
– Clients have become dissatisfied with the sweatshop
mentality that leads to turnover levels from 60 to 150 percent
a year, source( neoIT.). They need worker stability
