UKRAINE AND POLAND ARE THE LEADING IT OUTSOURCING DESTINATIONS
Poland and Ukraine are the countries with the greatest number of IT professionals, meaning they have a huge talent pool. This is what makes them the primary sourcing destination: its where you go to find the right skills.
Ukraine is the country in Europe that trains the most engineers and IT graduates, whilst in absolute numbers Poland is just behind Germany, France and the UK. Ukraine (9.8%) and Poland (6.8%) are the countries with the highest proportion of graduates who choose the so-called STEM subjects.
Compared with western European countries, the average age across all the IT market is also lower, meaning the total number of IT professionals will grow considerably for a number of years to come.
Market development is supported by a comprehensive IT structure in both countries, for both developers and customers. Software developers work on B2B terms that are mutually beneficial: they increase flexibility for purchasers of such services and create an attractive tax situation for the providers (developers).
Significant numbers of professionals in this area are used to working for foreign companies in an outsourcing scenario. Software developers in Poland and Ukraine typically work in distributed and mixed teams. Developers in both countries are proficient in English and culturally they are close to other European countries.
