Apesoft: Software industry set to bill US$150mn in 2008
The Peruvian software industry is set to record sales of US$150mn this year compared to the US$130mn in 2007, local newspaper Gestión quoted Juvenal Luna, president of the country's software promotion agency Apesoft as saying.
However, the executive believes the sector could grow even higher if the private and public sectors increase their IT investments as a way to become more dynamic and face the competition brought by the free trade agreement (FTA) with the US.
The software industry will be one to benefit most from the FTA, as many companies, particularly in the public sector, look to optimize several of their business process, the paper reported.
Luna said there is an increasing interest from the public sector to improve their information systems through e-government. However, there is still concern in the industry, as the government has yet to decide if it will make these improvements with in-house developments or hire a third party specialized in the matter.
As a way to promote the work of local IT firms and have the public sector contract their services for IT update projects, Apesoft has held several meetings with the nation's intellectual property and fair trading agency Indecopi.
According to Luna, investments from the public sector in software solutions are set to increase 15% this year compared to 2007.

ProChile: Peru an interesting export destination for software developers
Peru is becoming an increasingly attractive export destination for Chilean software, according to Chile's government export promotion agency ProChile.
Chilean financial daily Diario Financiero reported ProChile's Lima office as saying that currently there are few foreign companies competing with local Peruvian software developers with applications for niche markets such as construction, health, finance and web design.
Demand for such applications, which boost competitiveness and efficiency of company processes, is growing, according to ProChile.
Peru has favorable legislation for companies exporting software to that country.
Imported packaged and tailor made software only pays taxes on the physical means in which the software is transported, such as the CD, unlike in Chile where a tax is also levied on the actual content of the software.
ProChile also sees opportunities for applications for the growing telecoms sector.
According to statistics of consultancy IDC, IT investments in Peru are expected to grow 15.8% this year compared to 2006, reaching a total value of US$800mn.
