Digital transformation has intensified the demand for skilled IT professionals in Korea. However, the country is grappling with a severe shortage of IT professionals and an aging workforce. By 2027, the country is expected to lack 60,000 engineers in crucial fields like AI, Cloud Computing, and Big Data (Ministry of Employment and Labor of Korea, 2023). Compounding this issue, the average age of Koreans is currently around 45, compared to the global average of 30.
Therefore, Korean companies are increasingly leveraging IT outsourcing as an extension of their capabilities. Outsourcing offers significant advantages, including access to a vast talent pool, cost savings of up to 40%, and faster time to market. Vietnam, in particular, has emerged as a rising IT outsourcing destination, ranked 5th on the “Best Countries to Outsource to in the World” list.
Pioneering companies like Samsung, LG, and Lotte have successfully navigated IT outsourcing in Vietnam, yet challenges remain.
This seminar will delve into these challenges and provide actionable solutions for achieving optimal efficiency in outsourcing projects.
