Russian IT and Outsourcing Industry to Keep Growing

According to “Russia IT and Outsourcing Industry Forecast to 2011”, a new research report by RNCOS, the Russian IT & outsourcing market has been growing at a rate of more than 20% since the past few years. Software spending has reported high growth rates; furthermore, it’s believed that it will continue to lead the growth patterns in the IT industry during 2008 to 2012.

The Russian software and services market will be mainly driven by the country's emergence as an IT Outsourcing (ITO) centre, thanks to its close proximity with Europe, similar time zone, and availability of high quality workforce at a competitive cost. The ITO market is undergoing phased transformation and is progressive from nascent stage to the development stage. Investments are also being phased in from both the government and private sector. The Russian government is increasing its IT investments in order to expand and develop the IT infrastructure in the country. Private sector investments are concentrated into opening of new software development centers in the country and also towards the expansion of the existing software development centers.
