Ramesh Awtaney, Founder and Chairman of ISON Group said, “Unlike most BPO and Tech services companies which take work and jobs to IP, we have pioneered reversing the trend by taking IP to the work without compromising on world-class quality. As part of our core strategy, we have invested in developing local systems and empowering local talent to foster a better future for the African continent. We do not outsource local work outside of Africa.”
Global CEO of ISON BPO, Mr. Pravin Kumar comments on their expansion in Nigeria. “Nigeria has a huge potential for growth and development, especially with the availability of strong, vibrant and talented workforce. One of our visions for Nigeria is to upskill the local human talent and develop it as an Offshore Call Center hub and also add significant value for our customers both internally and externally. It should not be difficult to create 25000 jobs in 1 to 2 years in this space and generate export revenue of around $ 400 million in this space. It can then, grow from there.”
