Whitelane Research is an independent organisation uniquely focused on and dedicated to IT sourcing research across Europe. Our Annual IT Sourcing Research Studies interview CIOs of the largest IT spending organisations in different countries about their opinion on their outsourcing plans and service providers. An extensive report is published providing a detailed overview of the IT outsourcing landscape, main sourcing trends, positioning of the main sourcing providers based on different KPIs and ranking of the service providers by segment (applications/infrastructure) and by country. Whitelane's end-user/service provider events allow senior-level executives to exchange ideas between end-users and service providers about different outsourcing themes and how to achieve better (win-win)sourcing relationships. These events take place in: Amsterdam, Barcelona, Berlin, Brussels, Copenhagen, Frankfurt, Helsinki, London, Madrid, Oslo, Paris, Stockholm, Vienna and Zurich. Our Executive Best Practices Groups “Sourcing” is a forum exclusively for corporate executives (end-users only) who use sourcing as significant part of their business strategies. Membership, which is by invitation only, allows executives to confidentially share ideas and information about their sourcing relationships.
