China’s Nantong lures IT/BPO sector



Bangalore Mirror Bureau

Post the global slowdown, the ASEAN region, consisting of China, Japan, South Korea and India among others, is looking to boost growth. And China wants the Indian IT/ BPO sector to pay attention to markets closer to home.

“It is time India stopped looking Westward and took a look at the multi-billion dollar market in the East,” said Anil Bhardwaj, secretary general, Federation of Indian Micro and Small and Medium Enterprises (FISME). He was speaking at a press meet held by the India-China Economic and Cultural Council (ICEC), based in Beijing, and FISME to invite Indian IT and BPO companies to Nantong’s technology park.

The Nantong Economic and Technological Development Area (NETDA) will provide all necessary infrastructure for the companies to service markets in China and the ASEAN region, Chen Xiao Dong, vice secretary and vice director of NETDA, said. The NETDA technology park is an hour’s travel from Shanghai.
