If you have been following the news recently, for the first time the Ministry of Information and Communication Technology is organizing the ICT-BPO Conference and Networking Forum. The attendees are very high level professionals in the IT Industry coming from diverse background: Private Companies as well as Government bodies. The aims of the conference are to:

Learn about the capability and track record of Mauritius as an established ICT-BPO location
Assess how Mauritius can fit in the global delivery model

Hear industry best practices and lessons learned from leading practitioners
Assess the Mauritian potential for investment in the ICT-BPO sector
Visit leading shared services and business service centres

I am pleasantly impressed by the High Quality content on the first day of the conference (http://www.gov.mu/portal/sites/ICTBPO/agenda.htm). Topics include:

Mauritius: Capitalizing on Opportunities in the New Global Landscape (Gartner Research)

I personally like such type of openings of conference as when you see the research findings, it is interesting to go through the other topics to be discussed during the forum. I was present at a previous conference starting like that: http://asheshr.com/2009/10/01/my-first-international-conference-participation/

Mauritius: Infrastructure & Technology Development Landscape

Mauritius: Human Capital Development

Mauritius: Policy & Regulatory Enabling Framework

Testimony
Global Services Trends 2012 and Destination Development and Promotion.

There are very good topics for discussion.

I am impressed again by the very high profile of the speakers which include the CEO of Infosys, Accenture IT (J) etc.

Let’s hope for the expected outcome out of this conference/forum…
