Last week I attended the Silicon Valley Business Journal’s event celebrating the “40 Under 40” list for 2011. In addition to getting a sneak peek at plans for the 49ers new stadium, it was great to meet face to face with my fellow entrepreneurs from this year’s list. Continued »
For the third time in recent years, Nagarro has been named to the Global Services 100 list, a prestigious industry survey which identifies the world’s leading outsourcing providers. Continued »
Last year we began working with Helveta, the UK-based maker of supply chain intelligence software, CI World™. Helveta was seeing record demand for its unique product, which offers companies with global supply chains – such as the food and timber industries – complete supply chain visibility and control.
In order to ramp up its software development efforts and fill out its engineering team, Helveta brought on Nagarro as a partner. Helveta and Nagarro worked side by side to offer customers the latest product advances even sooner than originally planned, cementing Helveta’s position as the leader in its market.
Nagarro produced the results Helveta asked for on time and within budget. But what really stands out is the feedback we hear from Helveta again and again: Nagarro goes the extra mile, bringing a creative and proactive approach to this partnership in order to deliver real strategic value.
To hear about this project in the customer’s own words, please check out our new Helveta testimonial video.
Many of our customers think we are, as confirmed by the judges from this year’s Global Outsourcing 100 List, the International Association of Outsourcing Professionals’® (IAOP) listing of the world’s top outsourcers.
We are proud to report that Nagarro earned a perfect score for Customer Satisfaction in the 2011 Global Outsourcing 100 List. This score, which is based on a combination of direct customer input and third-party references, was tabulated by an esteemed panel of IAOP judges from companies like Eastman Kodak, Liberty Mutual Insurance and American Express.
While no one is perfect, this level of achievement sets the bar at the highest level – which is just where we like it, and exactly where our customers should expect it.

The devastating earthquake and tsunami in Japan will no doubt have far-reaching long-term effects on the global economy. But right now, our thoughts are with the countless number of people in dire need of emergency services. Please join us in taking a moment out of your busy workday to contribute to an aid organization of your choice, such as the American Red Cross “Japan Earthquake and Pacific Tsunami” fund.
Last month I posted that Nagarro was named a “Rising Star” in the 2010 Global Outsourcing 100® List by the International Association of Outsourcing Professionals® (IAOP®). I am now pleased to report that – as seen in the Fortune Magazine F500 issue on newsstands today – Nagarro has been awarded distinction in five categories of this award, including Top 20 “Rising Star” Outsourcing Firms, both in the US and Europe.
However, the most important achievements in winning this award are Nagarro’s near-perfect scores in customer satisfaction and employee management. As our customers know very well, Nagarro is only as good as the people who work here. As Nagarro’s CEO, I find it tremendously rewarding to know that all the hard work that goes into employee development behind the scenes has resulted in the desired effect: Satisfied customers.
A special thanks goes out to the hundreds of Nagarro employees working hard to help our customers achieve success. For me, this is what it’s all about.
In spite of the difficult economic conditions, the number of customers in each of our core market segments – large enterprises, midsize enterprises and technology companies – rose by nearly 40% across the board. Moreover, the range of industries these companies represent covered a wide range of verticals, including technology, manufacturing, aerospace, financial services, healthcare, retail, media, education and government customers.
What does this tell us? It is difficult to say with certainty that the recession is a thing of the past. However, we can conclude that regardless of size, industry or geography, companies recognize the value of using custom software products to make the most of their unique differentiators. Nagarro is proud to partner with the more than three dozen new customers who invested in long-term competitive strength. We are looking forward to an exciting 2010!
This week we announced that Nagarro has been named to the 2010 Global Outsourcing 100® List by the International Association of Outsourcing Professionals® (IAOP®). Nagarro was selected as a “Rising Star,” a category designated for the top 25 emerging companies on the list (the remaining 75 “Leaders” are considered large companies based on revenues and headcount).
Nagarro is proud to be listed alongside some of the industry’s most highly regarded outsourcing firms. We fared well in evaluations of our HR practices, management team strength and corporate social responsibility programs. But ultimately, we took the greatest pride in being able to provide objective third-party validation and glowing customer references. As we add this award to Nagarro’s accolades, we are once again grateful to all the customers, partners and employees who have helped Nagarro continue to achieve success.

We recently caught up with Chris Roe, CTO of Qtrax, in New York to find out more about his experience as a Nagarro customer. Qtrax and Nagarro have been working around the clock for months preparing for the launch of Qtrax 1.0, the industry’s first free and legal peer-to-peer music download service. Qtrax had a tall order – linking a massive music file system with ad-serving features while enabling millions of site visitors to rapidly download an unlimited number of high-quality music files.
Oh, and did we mention that they needed it done in just four months? Click on the video to hear how Nagarro rose to the challenge.
Get a look behind the scenes at Pacific Southwest Container, a midsize manufacturer of sustainable custom packaging.

Last week I attended the Midsize Enterprise Summit (MES) in Miami. This event has become one of Nagarro’s favorite venues for discussing the unique business and technology challenges faced by midsize enterprises – that vast range of companies across industries that falls somewhere between startups and global players.

As we all know, the economy has been in a tailspin for several months. When the economic crisis first began to rumble, many of our customers and prospects slammed the brakes on technology spending. But then before too long, we started noticing a change: smart companies began to realize that this was actually the perfect time to step on the gas and leave their competitors in the dust. The opportunity for competitive advantage is far greater when potential rivals are frozen at a standstill. Continued »
