As skilled labor shortages, digital transformation, and cybersecurity demands continue to shape business decisions, nearshoring is increasingly in focus as a sustainable and strategic solution for companies.
In the latest edition of Weberbank’s Diskurs Magazine, our CEO Davide Criscione shares insights and experiences with this approach.
The article describes how shifting production and IT services to Europe is a smart response. It helps companies deal with geopolitical tensions, supply chain risks, and the lack of qualified professionals.
One thing is clear: nearshoring is not just a quick fix – it’s a long-term strategy.
What is Nearshoring – and Why Does It Matter?
The past few years have exposed how vulnerable global supply and service chains can be. From pandemic-related shutdowns to raw material shortages and political instability – many companies are now seeking alternatives to traditional offshoring.
This is where nearshoring comes into play:
instead of outsourcing to distant countries, tasks are relocated to geographically and culturally closer regions – particularly Central and Eastern Europe.
This means:
- Shorter delivery routes
- Smoother communication
- Higher quality and process control
- Legal compliance (e.g. GDPR)
- Faster response times
These developments clearly place nearshoring in focus for companies seeking scalable, resilient, and efficient operations.
“A partnership-based collaboration with nearshoring providers offers a win-win strategy to address the skilled labor shortage quickly.”

In the interview, Davide Criscione explains how companies gain access to a large pool of skilled IT professionals – without language or time zone barriers, but with full project commitment.
From Cost Cutting to Collaboration – Putting Nearshoring in Focus
The article also highlights companies like Vialutions, a Berlin-based software provider that has been successfully working with development teams in Poland for years.

Nearshoring as an Economic Factor
According to a Swiss-Re-Institute study, nearshoring could boost Germany’s GDP by an average of 1.7% per year until 2026 – through increased investment in local infrastructure, equipment, and talent.
That’s a powerful signal for companies seeking long-term IT resilience.
