Enterprise software is on track to grow at a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12%. Inflationary pressures, higher interest rates, and general slowdown due to geopolitical turmoil are likely to have little impact on software growth. Both infrastructure and application software markets will exceed $400 billion by 2023. Expect an environment with robust demand for security, database management, tech operations management, vertical software, and cloud-based front- and back-office applications.
