Minsk, Belarus -- (ReleaseWire) -- 09/15/2006 --Eastern Europe is becoming an attractive outsourcing destination to more and more leading corporates (Accenture, IBM Global Services, HP Services, Siemens Business Services, etc.). These giants strive to establish their presence in eastern European countries, including Belarus.

Belarus has a great potential in the IT market. It nowadays has more than 500 IT companies. The unique educational heritage ensures high qualification of IT specialists.
