INTERNATIONAL CLOUD SOFTWARE SYMPOSIUM, HELSINKI,

IS FINLAND COMPETITIVE ENOUGH IN THE CLOUD?

1.Cloud-based global software delivery allows for … shorter cycles from ideas to profit 1.Cloud-based platforms and ecosystems allow for … distributed collaborative development 1.Scalable cloud infrastructure allows for … new players and new solutions entering focal position Who can benefit from this? CLOUD OPPORTUNITIES

1.Cloud-based global software delivery allows for … shorter cycles from ideas to profit

Consequences: Applications need to be production-ready throughout the lifecycle No more time to waste Build the right software, understand value and focus on value Be able to react to changes quickly Learn and fail fast

Leadership Culture People Process changes Quality of releases MAIN OBSTACLES

Processes (lean, agile, global) Organization (teams, interfaces, …) Personnel (new roles) Strategy (value-oriented) Marketing (experimentation-oriented) … TRANSFORMATION

Finnish cloud service market: 140 million euros in 2012 Yearly growth 40 % New software business will come mainly from the SaaS Significant part of the Finnish companies have not understood the magnitude and speed of the changes ahead Risk that global companies will capture at least part of the market Public body may serve as a pioneer and supporting the transfer of public services to the cloud FINNISH SITUATION

CLUSTERS

Finland flat hierarchy, less fear of failure and less bureaucracy as key factors government financial support for entrepreneurs is “quite nice” in Finland competent developers available, good infrastructure scene is still young and needs “more growth and entrepreneurial skills” many success stories (e.g., game industry) Germany: more of a hierarchical approach first thing is need to minimise bureaucracy Planned: Simplified processes STARTUPS

Cloud adoption is necessary and increasing Undestanding the speed and magnitude of cloud impact is essential Further actions to develop new capabilities are needed Finland is ahead with respect to research programs Companies involved in the Cloud Software Program are well prepared Others can learn from Cloud Software results or catch up in N4S Many thanks for letting me participate in this great program!
