An interesting discussion on outsourcing to India from Norway is captured in the minutes of a meeting help at the India embassy in Norway between IT professionals.

A further example of how the outsourcing model can work is provided by KRING, to whom Telia have recently outsourced work on an internal knowledge management system.
