Abstract: Abstract In Chap. 8 we investigate the potential to predict future scenarios in the Japanese software industry, making use of a hybrid method: that is, we try to develop a new research framework by integrating data obtained from issue-oriented large-scale fact-finding surveys, statistical analyses based on dynamic modeling, and simulations. On this basis, we suggest guidelines for a global technology strategy for Japan’s software industry, with a view to winning a sustainable competitive advantage. Also, it should be possible to develop evidence-based visualizations of industry growth scenarios by integrating intellectual instruments such as management theory, research surveys, statistics, and simulations.
