Outsourcing & Nearshoring are Rapidly Developing in Egypt
Suppose you have to find the center of the world. In that case, it’s probably in or near Egypt. Europe is directly above the Mediterranean Sea, Africa slowly grows, most Asia gathers on the right side, and the United States jumps across the Atlantic Ocean to the left.
There is no better place than Egypt for a company that offers various services to clients worldwide, as in the case of outsourcing and BPO. With communication technology that enables you to work in the most convenient locations in the world, Egypt is ready to take advantage of its geographical location and its pool of talent.
Why Choosing Egypt as The Destination for Outsourcing and Software Development?
Egypt is well-positioned to become a leading provider of business and technology services to other countries and DX organizations, particularly those in regions such as North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa that are facing resource constraints, after establishing itself as the preferred regional outsourcing services hub for Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) and the US, Egypt started expanding its global outsourcing footprint.
As a result, Egypt’s BPO and IT offshoring industry has grown gradually, gaining a global market share.
Four Reasons to Choose Egypt as Your Destination for Outsourcing
1. A Destination Full of Talents
Egypt has a strong resource pool as the government focuses on technology education, accreditation, and research. Each year, thousands of tech graduates enter the labor market; Egypt’s extensive professional training and accreditation facilities lay the foundation for world-class talent in high-demand areas. With many speakers of English, Arabic, French, German, and many other European languages, Egypt can deal with various global features and technologies. The institutions provide students with UpToDate technologies, routinely update education and training curricula, invest in R&D, and prioritize job market demand. All institutions, including national/international universities and government ICT entities, recognize the importance of providing students with the latest technologies through formal education. The attrition rate in Egypt is also low compared with other offshoring destinations in Europe and Asia, ensuring better customer management and process continuity.
2. Success Stories Keep Occurring in Egypt
Success stories continue to grow in Egypt; IBM invested in six supply centers servicing worldwide. Valeo Egypt has grown into Valeo’s leading software R & D center, providing all automotive embedded software services and Egypt Mentor Graphics R&D and Development Center currently employs 400 engineers. It is one of the largest centers outside the United States. In addition, Dell EMC and Microsoft Egypt have identified Egypt as one of the best places to invest and grow.
3. The time zone
Geographically central as a transcontinental country, Egypt is connected to many parts of the world and shares a time zone similar to Central Europe.
Egypt benefits from being present in a time zone that is closely aligned with its major Western European markets. This allows for ease in handling real-time work, customer calls, or social media moderation, the bulk of which is likely to arise during daytime hours, which are similar on both the client and the provider side.
4. Internet and Telecommunications
The rapid advances in telecommunications technology have been the catalyst for the growth that has taken the industry to the far corners of the world and brought millions of people into the fold of the connected world.
Egypt has an internet backbone that connects more than 60 countries over 18 routes with cable capacities up to 60 Tbps, and the infrastructure has been upgraded to stay ahead of demand.
With a breakthrough investment law, Egypt is now gaining a competitive advantage across the region, reaching 5.6% in early 2020 and boosting economic growth in the country’s highest growth in the Middle East. Moreover, it is more open to investment.
This investment law has fueled the growth of the local ICT sector and has been able to demonstrate its resilience through the Covid 19 pandemic.
It has made Egypt’s global investors more attractive and has stimulated demand from international companies that have chosen Egypt as a reliable offshoring destination and hub for business services.
Conclusion
Egypt has become a significant outsourcing destination by enhancing its business environment and fostering a better investment climate. Egypt is rich in human resources, especially in knowledge-based industries. Thanks to the nearshoring and outsourcing in Egypt, with its advanced technical expertise, it is an ideal place for international companies looking for global expansion.
