  • Abstract
    The paper discusses the evolution of the Irish software industry and the key components of the new business model. The first wave consisted of small service companies that in this period transformed into product companies and began to export (UK mainly). The second wave was characterised by the emergence of larger companies and a big increase in the number of companies. The third wave is the age of the Internet and the need for new business models
