We also spoke about technology systems in the perspective of global competition. He believes that one of the financial metrics taught at business schools and reinforced by Wall Street has accelerated offshoring of industries. He spoke about ROCE (return on capital employed). The numerator (return) encourages more sales, which is fine.
Usually the location of the engineers matters great so having offshore engineering makes acquihires unlikely. Get yourself in a big demo day competition. And they might give a premium if the team has been around a longer period of time, has built some hard-to-build proprietary technology or has some customer traction. Go do a startup.
So before you decide to move your manufacturing, software development, or call center out of town, make sure you understand the following considerations: Dont give someone else control of your competitive advantage. Saving cost wont help you if you cant make the daily innovations required to stay competitive. Marty Zwilling.
Of course you need to discount any investor competitive positioning, but local investment group leaders will quickly tell you the strengths and terms of active investors in your area. Personal funds imply the most commitment, and offshore funding is most suspect.

Software can be developed “offshore” for a low cost, manufacturing volumes are quickly available from China, and European designs have increased opportunities in every country. However, to gain a true competitive edge, you still need to implement effective solutions first at the local level. Find global sources now. Marty Zwilling.
Competitive advantages are rapidly vaporizing on these. Outsourcing and manufacturing “offshore” have become the norm. Internal corporate processes thwart innovation due to inherent inefficiencies of scale, high overhead, and the risk of impact on the corporate bottom line. Existing technologies have been “commoditized” globally.

The conversations bleed into the sales messages the next time, they wend their way into software designs and form the plan of attach against competition. What about offshoring? First, many people confuse outsourcing and offshoring. I prefer that early stage companies not offshore development. I have another exception.
