- #5 The world runs on software:- Last 20-30 years have seen invasion of software into almost every aspect of our lives. If we look around we will find that the software is every where. I believe I don’t have to start counting things in this room that have software running but its not too difficult to imagine how pervasive software is. Its not that difficult to see that software plays an ever increasingly important part in out lives.
- #6 1- This is true even more so for our businesses where it has moved from a productive tool to a more strategic asset. Last week I was reading about the use of technology in Fish farming in Singapore. I was absolutely amazed to know that the business is only possible and feasible due to the advanced technology that they are using. Otherwise on their scale they may not make money out of it. I am sure that there so many similar examples around us where we see how software is delivering strategic value to the business.2- Software delivery end-to-end is still a risky process3- Inherent Complexity
