SAO PAULO, September 26, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --

Stefanini IT Solutions, a Brazilian multinational present in 28 countries and one of the most important global providers of technology solutions, has announced its participation in the 2011 Gartner Outsourcing & IT Services Summit. The event, scheduled to take place on September 26th and 27th at the Park Plaza Westminster Bridge, in London, UK, is one of the most important gatherings of leaders of the technology sector in Europe's software industry, with the aim of bringing professionals active in the industry up to date with the latest developments.

According to Manuel Frade, Chief Executive Officer for EMEA of Stefanini IT Solutions, the Gartner Outsourcing & IT Services Summit has become consolidated as a key event and guide to the business of outsourcing. "The event provides an important showcase to leverage the growth of the company," he notes. "Sourcing strategies, services at competitive cost for the industry, Governance, Multisourcing and Global Delivery, are some of the issues that will be discussed at the event and which are in line with our offering and business in the region," he adds.

In addition, the event constitutes a major opportunity for networking with industry professionals. With backgrounds from a very wide variety of industries and countries, these executives will have a chance to recognize in Stefanini a provider of cutting edge technology, to evaluate the company's services and find out how to support their business objectives.

This is the sixth time that Stefanini has taken part in the Gartner Outsourcing & IT Services Summit, and the first since its acquisition of Tech Team, an American company acquired by Stefanini in December of 2010. "On one hand, the company's participation in the event represents an opportunity to provide guidance concerning business and IT strategies and on the other hand, it serves to increase the recognition of our brand in Europe," Frade points out.

For the 2011 Gartner Outsourcing & IT Services Summit, Stefanini has reserved a platinum sponsorship package that will ensure privileged placement and a session of Solution Provider (SPS) to strengthen the company's exhibit.

"Our previous participations at this gathering have resulted in some major clients, and we're hoping to repeat the success of this strategy once again this year," says Marco Stefanini, founder and President of Stefanini IT Solutions, who will be going to London especially to attend the event. "We are committed to showing the public a portfolio that is even more complete and flexible, as well as a brand that is stronger, global and recognized by the market. Our participation at the Gartner Outsourcing & IT Services Summit is fundamental to our growth strategy for the region," adds Stefanini.
