The value of major deals in the second quarter of the year leapt €1bn since last year
UK companies are leading the growth of outsourcing across Europe, contributing 36 per cent of the 84 deals signed during the second quarter of 2007.
Major contracts across the period were valued at a total of €5.4bn (£3.8bn), an increase of €1bn (£698m) over the 65 projects from the same quarter last year, according to analyst Forrester Research.
