iCoCo is a leadership initiative launched by the Recruitment Process Outsourcing Association (RPOA) in 2022. The objective is to empower RPO providers to grow their businesses and serve their clients by fostering strategic relationships with technology and service providers within the iCoCo community.

iCoCo offers high-touch programs connecting technology and service companies with RPOA members. From introductory emails and member-only events to virtual tech fairs and annual conferences, iCoCo programs offer mutually beneficial opportunities to their participants.

According to Everest Group’s 2021 report, the next generation of recruitment process outsourcing (RPO 4.0) will be automated and fully integrated talent solutions with single-sign-on access across multiple technology applications.

Talent technology is essential to the evolution of RPO providers. RPO providers who are able to combine service excellence and automated technology solutions will stay ahead in a competitive RPO marketplace. However, keeping up with the evolving landscape of talent technology and forging strategic partnerships with the best technology vendors can be a daunting task for any organization, great or small.
