[This is a Chinese event.]
Shared service centers (SSCs) are a unit within a corporation or organization that supply the company with specialized services such as finance, HR, IT services, facilities, logistics and sales transactions. They are used to not only cut costs for the businesses and standardize processes but also to provide more flexibility in allocating resources to business units. If run correctly, SSCs can save a company an average of 50% of costs.
Companies with annual revenues of ten billion RMB or more have more motivation to set up SSCs. With economy boosting, in the past 5 years, SSCs are growing exponentially in China. According to a report, by the end of 2020, the number of SSCs in China has exceeded 1000 and the number is still growing.
Due to fact that most SSCs are established in the past 5 years, the operational maturity is still relatively low compared to other business functions. Many SSCs share the same problems:
As a labor-intensive and cost sensitive unit of a corporate, integrating human and technology factors become unprecedented crucial for all SSCs. The future SSC model decides where SSCs executives should put their energy into.
Since the founding of Nanjing SSC Committee, discussions on where the shared service centers will go never stopped. In the committee's opinion, SSCs will develop into three models:
Each of the models has its representatives at the market. Some combine the 2 or 3 models, most of them indicated it is hard to predict and are eager to learn from others.
What is this event about?
This event is aimed at providing in-time information and business insight for SSCs on its potential future pathways and what SSC leaders should prepare at this moment for the upcoming future.
The event consists of 2 parts. First part is an overview of SSCs in China and a panel discussion of hands-on practices from SSC leaders and the second part is 2 guide workshops focus separately on the human factor and technology factor of an SSCs.

共享服务中心（SSC）是企业或组织内部的一个为企业提供专业服务的单位，如财务、人力资源、IT服务、设施、物流和销售交易。共享服务中心不仅可以用于降低企业成本和标准化流程，而且还有利于更灵活更高效地向业务单元分配资源。如果运行得当，共享服务中心可以为企业平均节省50%的成本。
年收入在100亿元以上的企业，建立共享服务中心的积极性更高。随着经济的发展，在过去的5年里，中国的共享服务中心呈指数级增长。据介绍，截止到2020年底，我国共享服务中心数量已超过1000个，并且仍在不断增长。
由于大多数共享服务中心是在过去5年内建立的，因此与其他业务职能相比，运营成熟度仍然相对较低。许多共享服务中心都面临着相同的问题：
作为一个劳动密集型和成本敏感的单位，如何优化并整合人力和科技因素是所有共享服务中心都关注的关键问题。未来的共享服务中心模型决定了共享服务中心管理者应该将精力投入到哪里。
自南京中心共享服务协会成立以来，关于共享服务中心何去何从的讨论从未停止。协会成员们认为，共享服务将发展为三种模式：
每种模式在市场上都有代表性的企业。有的企业甚至结合了2-3种模型。然而无论是哪种模式的企业都表示难以预测这个行业的未来，并渴望与同行一起更深入的探讨学习。
关于本次活动
本次活动旨在为共享服务中心从业者提供有关其潜在未来路径的及时信息和业务见解，以及共享服务中心领导和管理者目前应如何更好的为未来做准备。
