Added: (Tue Aug 31 2010)

Pressbox (Press Release) - The sophistication of technology hasfacilitated the globalization of today's business world. The Philippines has a huge pool of skilled and talented professionals and having demonstrated an aggressive reception to technological advancements, the country has firmly established a reputation as the most cost-effective, high quality business process outsourcing hub in the world.

According to the Philippine Commission on Higher Education, the country produces approximately 200,000 Information Technology and Computer Science graduates every year. In 2002, there were already 290,000 Filipino professionals in the IT sector and this tight competition continuously raises the bar. Meanwhile, The Meta Group, a premier IT research and consultancy firm in the United States, ranked the Philippines as the world's most competitive country under the Global New e-Economy Index “knowledge jobs” category.

Aside from the country's robust IT infrastructure, Filipinos value perseverance, creativity, and excellence. With such rich and diverse culture, Filipinos inherently put high regards for arts and aesthetics. All these qualities help the Philippines exceed international standards and excel in the multimedia industry worldwide.
