Relatively, software engineering is a young industry and hence there is still lot of scope in improving the software development methods. Software product competition can be compared with high stakes premium sports. Difference between the winners and losers are razor thin and will be < 5%. This razor thin edge is significantly influenced by modern software development methods and hence very interesting to learn and master.

Everything is possible technologically, and is also possible in numerous ways, thus greatly reducing entry barriers for innovation. This makes it flat and enhances the competition amongst products and companies. This is exciting and also the biggest challenge to constantly differentiate, maintain the differential lead and winning markets.

Software product engineering is witnessing so many changes in terms of technology available. In addition, it is enabling exciting changes in every domain from fintech, edu-tech, health and the environment. 

It is exciting to be able to utilise new technology on the input side, and create awesome outcomes in all walks of life.

The opportunities available in front of Software product companies has never been more. The impact that can be had by SaaS companies are exciting.

I believe that in the long term, the companies that innovate most are going to succeed. Agility is actually inseparable and should not be separated from Innovation.

The culture of the teams and how it transforms along with growth becomes a key challenge and differentiator.

I will be sharing recipes for scaling Agility that is focussed on building an Agile culture through Alignment of goals, decentralised decisioning and continuous feedback on decisions' outcomes

This is the best time to be in Software Engineering. Keep learning and Stay Agile in both personal and professional fronts !
