International sourcing webinar: What you need to know about recent trends

Yet although some companies may benefit from near-sourcing, others may not. Join us on April 30 to learn how to better evaluate your own sourcing decisions.
In this Grant Thornton webinar, our thought leaders will discuss the following factors in deciding whether to move offshore, bring operations home, or maintain the status quo.
