Outsourcing will save on all kinds of overhead costs – salary, benefits, office space… but those aren’t the only numbers that matter when it comes to making this decision. India also has the number advantage when it comes to the number of savvy, talented individuals who would love to work for an American company.

Teams of any size can benefit from adding offshore members. In fact, entire operations can be outsourced to India so your in-house team can stay nice and lean, ready to make big things happen.

We think Game of Thrones Season 8 is terrible!! Chernobyl is definitely the best thing on TV this year. We love sci-fi movies, from Stars Wars to the Matrix. We cheered equally loudly when Captain America picked up Thor’s hammer in Avengers (oops, spoiler… sorry!).
