Opportunities and Challenges: four opportunities for China's software industry

Hong Kong, May 5-in just 20 years, the global software industry has reached $200 billion, with over 10 million professionals engaged in software development. According to the New Economy Journal, China's IT industry will soon become the world's largest it country with an annual growth rate of 25%. Any company, including Microsoft, cannot ignore the Chinese market, china's software industry will have many opportunities in the 21st century, but it will also face many challenges.

The first opportunity is that China's economic development will provide strong support for the software industry. Compared with India, although the current total output value of China's software industry is much smaller than India, there are also many shortcomings in software development management, however, China has the fastest growing national economy and traditional enterprises in the world. The informatization of Traditional Chinese enterprises still has a great space for development. On the one hand, enterprises can achieve higher efficiency through informatization, on the other hand, the development of traditional enterprises can also promote the software industry, to tap into the huge potential of sustainable development.

The second opportunity is outsourcing. Outsourcing has become a trend in the global IT industry. companies in the United States and other countries want to outsource more IT jobs to India or China. However, the challenge facing China is that India's software industry has far exceeded China, and the market value of the three largest IT companies in India has reached $40 billion, far exceed the value of China's top 100 IT companies. Most importantly, Indian software practitioners have accumulated profound experience in software development and management, Software Talent Cultivation, software market expansion, and software outsourcing services. Relatively speaking, Chinese talents are very technical, but lack management, process, or experience and ability to do business and take orders abroad.

The third opportunity is that China can gain leadership opportunities across the world. When most people in the world develop application software, network services are a good opportunity to develop software that runs through network services. Web Services technology can integrate various information resources and service functions on the Internet. It is a rare opportunity for software enterprises around the world.

The fourth opportunity is that China's IT talents are incomparable in the world. But the same challenge is that IT programmers may not have good management capabilities, enough entrepreneurial and innovation capabilities. Most of China's products are single technical talents. China's software education focuses on technology and development, which is not comprehensive and universal. However, technology is not intended for technology, and technology is always used to serve the customer base. Therefore, we should focus on developing management talents that are proficient in professional skills, familiar with modern software architecture, capable of leadership, and far-sighted. This is the key to making breakthroughs in China's software industry.

The article holds that opportunities and challenges exist, software service outsourcing, domestic Software Enterprises' needs, and leadership opportunities that span the world platform are three complementary opportunities. In the next five years, china should give the same opportunities to promote diversified education.
