Digital Divide Data has offices in Cambodia (Phnom Penh and Battambang), Laos (Vientiane), Kenya (Nairobi), and a few staff in the United States. We operate in developing countries that are just now emerging as outsourcing destinations. A sales and management team in North America provides additional client support.
We have established offices in locations that have large untapped talent pools, political stability and solid infrastructure. Connecting motivated workers to the global marketplace, meeting deadlines, and producing exceptional quality work is the key to creating a new generation of leaders in the developing world and establishing these markets as new Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) destinations.
A long journey starts with the first step." - Cambodian proverb
DDD opened its first office in Phnom Penh, Cambodia in 2001. Two years later, we opened in Battambang, Cambodia's second largest city. Today, DDD employs close to 500 people in Cambodia. We recruit motivated, skilled high school graduates from the country's rural provinces as operations staff. Prior to starting their traineeship with DDD, they complete a six-month training program with the French NGO "Passerelles Numeriques", an IT vocational training center, where they are taught computer skills. The DDD management staff are graduates of some of the best colleges in the country, including Royal University of Phnom Penh and Build Bright University.

"If you want to go quickly go alone. If you want to go far, go together" – African proverb
Digital Divide Data is now serving clients from a new facility in Nairobi, Kenya. DDD Kenya has the same mission of providing world-class outsourcing services while offering young people from disadvantaged families a path out of poverty. Clients are drawn from the regional East African market as well as those clients in the international market who have need of higher-level English skills. Kenya is widely regarded as a prime location for corporations seeking entry into the African market, in large part due to the country's large pool of English speaking professionals. As a former British colony, English is Kenya's official language, and school is taught in English (all subjects) from the first grade.

You know, you teach. You do not know, you learn." - Lao proverb
