The HOW
e.g.
1. Machine Learning
2. Natural Language Process
3. Natural Language Generation
4. Deep Learning / Neural Networks
5. Computer Vision
Advances in this category first show up in academic research, then
businesses find ways to apply these tools to problems.

We have over 1 Million full time
BPO jobs, >5.4% of total GDP.
In 2012, India had >2.8 million
BPO jobs.

WARNING: We can’t expect the next 5
years to look like the last 5 years.
Problem:
The Philippines was #1 in Voice jobs as of 2012 (which will
be a problem as computer start talking more).
Opportunity:
We are global domain experts in BPOs.
