Welcome to the October 2006 issue of Offshore Insights. We continue to track the Services Globalization industry to provide you with the latest news, views and trends that shape the way services are purchased, delivered and managed around the world.

In 2004, we issued the first Offshore City Competitiveness Report, ranking twenty-seven Indian cities based on their attractiveness for offshoring. In the past two years, since the groundbreaking report was issued, multiple sourcing centers of excellence have emerged across the globe, with India home to several of the most established cities.

This month’s white paper analyzes twenty-four cities in terms of their current and future attractiveness as global services delivery locations.
