Abstract
This is the second year that we execute the Software Industry Survey in Germany and publish a report with the main results. As formulated in 2012, our goal is to investigate the current state of the German software industry on a yearly basis. Conclusions are made based on grounded data and empirical findings. We hope that
this type of research will contribute to the work of both, practitioners and researchers.
This year we further center our analyses around software firm's business models and strategies. Beyond the examination of business model characteristics, we focus on two additional important topics: Strategic Groups that emerge based on similar firm strategies and Software Ecosystems that focus on external resources complementing a firm's value offering and creation.
