Nearshore outsourcing is the practice of getting work done or services performed by people in
neighboring countries rather than in your own country. Many companies in the United States, for
example, outsource work to
Canada and Mexico. Geographic proximity means that travel and communications are easier and less
expensive, there are likely to be at least some commonalities between the cultures, and people are
more likely to speak the same language.
