Shinetech launches Chinese IT Offshoring Services to the UK

Leading the way for the supply of offshore IT services in China, Shinetech UK provides a competitive alternative to rival Indian IT services companies.

London, UK (Shinetech UK) March 13th 2008 – Shinetech, a leading supplier of Chinese offshore IT services, launched its UK and European operations with a gala event at their headquarters in Windsor last week. Guest

speakers at the event included Adam Afriyie MP, who spoke about China and Britain in the 21st century, Chen Zeng from the Chinese Embassy who talked about current trade investment and relations, and Ralph Rogers from the China Britain council, who gave an informative and enjoyable speech on current relations between the UK and China.  Shinetech UK also have the advantage of an established and current UK client based to call on, and attendees enjoyed a number of client testimonials. The common theme through all of the testimonials was the feeling of credibility, competence, customer focus and support they got from using Shinetech as their supplier of choice.

The message of China being an up and coming force de jour in the offshore services market was re-enforced by all the speakers. China have already established national schools to ensure a steady supply of IT talent and is expected to produce 800,000 trained software professionals, compared to 600,000 in India. As a country China are driving for an innovation based economy which has led to the emergence of China’s software services industry, an industry which has grown at over 30% per annum. Fears over IP (Information Protection) control have always been an issue in China, but all of our experts who talked on the day agreed that this is now being eradicated.

Seb Butt, Managing Director of Shinetech UK commented;
‘I was very pleased with the event. We had a great mix of people in attendance to learn about Shinetech and also find out about how and why China is growing into an IT services giant. Our range of speakers were wonderful, we had some past and current Shinetech customers speaking about their experiences, as well as other speakers including representatives of the Chinese embassy and the China-Britain. There is definitely a transition happening in the global offshoring IT services space, and Shinetech is at the forefront of this change. We look forward to providing the UK and continental European clients the opportunity to outsource to a Chinese IT Services Company.  We are hoping to further penetrate the market in the upcoming months through direct business development activities as well as having a presence at events such as Outsource World’.
