What is Nearshoring?
IT nearshoring refers to collaboration with service providers from countries located near the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland). This approach optimally complements your IT projects by leveraging the geographical and cultural advantages of proximity.
Difference between IT Nearshoring and IT Offshoring
In IT nearshoring, we colaborate with companies located within a three-hour flight radius from Germany. In contrast, IT offshoring typically involves outsourcing to distant regions such as Asia or South America.
