MARTINEZ MARIN, Sindy Johana; ARANGO ARAMBURO, Santiago  and  ROBLEDO VELASQUEZ, Jorge. THE GROWTH OF THE COLOMBIAN SOFTWARE INDUSTRY: A SYSTEMIC ANALYSIS. Rev.EIA.Esc.Ing.Antioq [online]. 2015, n.23, pp.95-106. ISSN 1794-1237.

Colombian software industry is considered a world-class sector that represents an opportunity for economic and industrial growth and boosting competitiveness. The economic relevance of this industry lays in the fact that it gives support to the operability and stability of other important industrial sectors of the domestic economy. On the other hand, empirical evidence reveals that there are growth limitations to overcome in order to achieve the proposed goals of the sector. This research work aims to identify the problem that is at the root of the low growth of the industry through a systemic analysis and the use of modeling methodologies. The results indicate deficiencies in the industrial development and market expansion in the sector, due to the misunderstanding of the system dynamic of this industry.

Keywords : Software Industry; Competitiveness; Systemic Analysis; Modeling Methodology; System Thinking.
