TODAY, EVERY BUSINESS IS IN THE SOFTWARE BUSINESS
…becoming a software company takes
a lot more work than just hiring a bunch
of good software developers…It
requires a new way of thinking about
what it takes to be a successful
software company. –Jeffrey M. Kaplan, SANDHILL.COM
In a world underpinned by ever
more powerful, affordable, and
public technology platforms,
software is still king. And its
importance as a source of value
will only continue to grow.–Vijay Gurbaxani, HARVARD BUSINESS REVIEW
