"
It was a great event and I found it very interesting to hear about other's experience in the shared services space." - Global SSC Director of midwest manufacturing firm with SSC in Hungary.

"We discussed how beneficial this would have been to us in the early days of our establishment of our Krakow office and believe others would feel the same." - Global Process Owner from blue-chip Financial Services firm with SSC location in CEE.
