Carrying forward the experience and achievements of the previous leadership, we want to work sincerely to further unlock the potential of the country's BPO and ITES industry and fulfill the interests and expectations of member organizations. On this journey, I seek the active cooperation of BACCO members, past and present executive committees, concerned government and private institutions, and all industry stakeholders.
