The California-headquartered company with revenues of about $300-plus million is promoted by billionaire Romesh Wadhwani-led private equity firm Symphony Technology Group.<\/p>\n<p>\nDemand for outsourced product development is growing at a healthy clip with Forrester pegging the market size at $15 billion by 2016, growing every year at about 29%. Symphony\u2019s competitor Persistent Systems too expects demand to stay strong and is chasing two to four big deals in the current fiscal.<\/p>\n<p>\nProliferation of cloud, mobile and social media technologies, the importance of mining customer data and the urgent need to focus on core business markets to tackle competition is driving demand for offshore software product development. Global product development offshoring grew 12% in 2011 over 2010, twice as fast as technology spend growth, Nasscom figures show.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cBut it is becoming increasingly fragmented and specialised, and your margins really depend on where in the food chain you are,\u201d Dhawan points out.<\/p>\n<p>\nSymphony\u2019s strategic push over the next couple years will be to stay focused on its core businesses of enterprise mobility and data analytics. The firm has carried out some realignment by offloading its telecom expense management business to Tangoe for about $41 million a few months ago.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Technology services company Symphony Teleca expects to close $100-million buyout to reach its 2014 revenue target of $500-million, chief executive Sanjay Dhawan said.
