Sourcing Decisions, an AI and Customer Experience Conference, Returns to Toronto in April

Next Coast Media, parent of Nearshore Americas, is hosting the second annual Sourcing Decisions conference in Toronto on April 10, 2018, with a concentrated examination of the practical impacts of artificial intelligence and customer experience within the enterprise and through third-party outsourcing.

“Sourcing Decisions was founded to really fuel knowledge sharing through real-world examples and experience. We are not here to forecast long-term adoption models for various technologies; what outsourcing customers want is real insight from both peers and suppliers that is useful today,” says Kirk Laughlin, Managing Director of Next Coast Media.

Sourcing Decisions is a full-day conference and will feature presentations, panel discussions, supplier exhibit area, a buyer-driven inquiry session (BDIS), luncheon, and a closing sponsors’ reception. Registration is open now.

Attendees can expect to gain the following benefits:

High-caliber executive level presentations and panel discussions
Key focus on the most disruptive forces in North America sourcing for technology services – innovations in robotics process automation, artificial intelligence, fintechs and the changing landscape of customer experience tools and solutions.
The right audience: Our gathering is designed to deliver value for the senior executives determining the course of sourcing and procurement in the post IT/BPO era. (Nearly 60% of the attendees profile at 2017’s event represented corporate and government customer organizations.)
The right venue: We continue to hear rave reviews on the St. Andrews Club location (now known as Vantage Venues), since holding our conference there last year – so we’re back again!
Americas’ orientation: Given the strength of alliance partner, Nearshore Americas, our conference provides a ‘pan-American’ perspective on leveraging the strength of nearshore partnerships in Latin America and the Caribbean.

Martin Boyer / Chief Information Officer & Vice President at The Greater Toronto Airports Authority
Fabiano Rosa / Director, PwC Canada
