Indian Outsourcing 2.0

Synopsis

This documentary highlights the rapid growth of outsourcing operations in India, particularly in Bangalore. It features a CT scan of the abdomen and pelvis, showcasing the efficiency of teleradiology services that send scans from India to hospitals in the US, Europe, and Singapore within 30 minutes. The company, which started in 2002, now employs over 50 radiologists. Additionally, it discusses Scan Cafe, a business that began as a class project at Wharton Business School, which enhances old photographs. Initially based in San Francisco, the founders moved operations to Bangalore due to the significant cost difference, where graphic editing costs only about $0.05 per photo compared to $1 in the US. The documentary emphasizes the evolution of India's outsourcing landscape, moving from basic IT services to sophisticated operations that cater to global markets.
