What will experience the biggest evolution over the next decade for you? Software or hardware?

“Software! Well both are important, hardware and software. But software is defining the business models of the future. Software gives us the flexibility. We see the software-defined vehicles, software-defined datacenters, software-defined everything. And I think this has the broader scope in defining the next iterations of technology and driving the rest.”

- Maria Anhalt, CEO, Elektrobit
