  • The Economic Times BPO Summit 2.0 – A discussion to connect and shape the future

    Lending an ear to your customers, listening to their queries, delivering prompt responses, and developing personalized solutions can help you stand out and gain loyalty.

    The past year has been a year of learning, considering options, and triumphing over all of the pandemic’s obstacles. Technology has been at the forefront of assisting all sectors and organisations in revamping their operations and adjusting to the new normal.

    The pandemic laid several drawbacks for the contact centers, such as increasing call volumes, lengthy hold times, and growing security concerns, however, it also offered them a chance to modernise and experiment with work-from-home opportunities.

    While enabling companies technically and manually, BPOs have undergone a vigorous transformation themselves in the past couple of months. Each day is a new learning experience for this industry, as it introduces a new way of functioning and working effectively to keep operations of businesses running smoothly.

    While providing solutions and assistance to other companies, the BPO sector itself has been dealing with security issues, getting accustomed to working in a remote and hybrid environment and aiding business continuity. With the introduction of RPA, AI, chatbots, and email bots, the services rendered by them have to go a notch higher, to meet the ever-increasing expectations of their customers.

    Poster for the Event

    Create impact and keep on innovating. In a startup journey, there are three major stages: 0, 1 and n. At 0, you are just beginning and your idea is all you have. At 1, you have your startup established. At n, your startup is expanding and scaling-up. In the journey from 0 to 1, we hope to create something that would impact society in a huge way. We want to disrupt the usual flow of the way things work. In the journey from 1 to n, every startup while scaling-up faces a lot of disruptions. With these constant disruptions, it becomes difficult to keep on innovating. This year, we explore the ways to deal with these Dilemmas of Disruption. Join us as we try to inspire and prepare the next wave of Indian Entrepreneurs who know how to create impact and keep on innovating!
