MSB is proud to announce the 4th annual Shared Services Center Business Event, “SHARED SERVICE CENTER: INTEGRATING THE BEST PRACTICES” which will take place September 9 to 12 in Sofia, Bulgaria. Attending the event will be leading SSC Directors from Russia, CIS and Europe who will join together to share experiences, discuss current trends and look together at what the future holds.

 

Sofia or “The land of the golden apple” is a charming sunny European capital. It is the land of mountains, golden beaches, fragrant roses, royal wines, ancient pottery works and fascinating surrounding nature. Rapid economic development and stability is turning Bulgaria into an attractive business region. This sunny city is very conveniently placed, has a business positive tax policy along with a highly talented employment pool from which to draw.

 

This 4th annual business meeting will grant you a unique opportunity to visit the innovative and world class Coca-Cola Hellenic Business Services Organization. The center serves 22 countries and 3 head offices; and it recently assumed control over financial and HR functions. The group will have an excellent opportunity to witness the day to day activities of this SSC and meet its top management. Participants will be able to drill into questions and discussions to learn from a world class institution like Coca Cola.

 

Following the visit a benchmarking session will take place where participants can exchange their impressions and ideas and get valuable feedback

 

In the framework of the 4th annual meeting, the conference “SSC in financial institutions” will take place.

This new trend in SSC utilization is garnering intense interest in the financial world at the moment. European and Russian experts will share best practices for organizing and optimizing SSCs, in improving communications and strategy, function design and designation, and working with various business units in financial institutions.

 

After an intense and robust program our guests will have a chance to continue networking in an informal environment and spend a weekend on the Black Sea.
