The survey found that domestic industrial software enterprises face three major talent “hematopoietic” problems.

First of all, it is difficult to train industrial software talents.

1788-EN2FFR “Most of China’s colleges and universities have not set up industrial software related majors, lack mature compound talent training programs and curriculum configuration, and interdisciplinary training system has not been established.” In addition, due to the lack of long-term reciprocity mechanism for school-enterprise cooperation, the motivation for joint training is insufficient, and there is a shortage of graduates with software programming and engineering development capabilities. From the perspective of vocational education, China’s industrial software vocational education is’ basically blank ‘.” Zhou Zhongfeng said.

Hutchinden felt the same way. “Industrial software talent needs to grow in the practice 1788-EN2FFR of specific projects. Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Harvard University and other industrial software companies in the United States to provide a huge talent support, these schools education and industry is very closely combined. Their undergraduates took part in many practical engineering projects while in school and graduated with a lot of practical experience. In contrast, in Chinese universities, the combination of production, learning and research and school-enterprise cooperation is far from enough.”

Secondly, it is difficult to recruit industrial software talents.

“Domestic industrial software enterprises need a combination of engineering, mathematics and computer leading talents. “The difficulty in the industry is that these talents are already scarce, and most of the domestic industrial software companies are small, so attracting and retaining these talents is a major problem.” Said Lei Yi, chairman and president of Beijing Digital Dafang Technology Co., LTD.

Zhou Zhongfeng believes that the current industrial software industry in China is facing the severe reality of less talent reserve and even “cut off supply”. Many R & D design, production control industrial software companies have less 1788-EN2FFR than 500 R & D personnel, basically less than 10% of the R & D team of Internet companies.

Finally, it is difficult to retain industrial software talents.

“At present, the profit level of China’s industrial software enterprises is limited, and the growth power of internal talents is insufficient. The employee income level of domestic industrial software enterprises is far less than that of well-known foreign industrial software enterprises and domestic Internet enterprises. How to retain talent is a big problem.” Zhou Zhongfeng said.

In addition to the lack of talent, the shortage of long-term financial support is also an important factor restricting the development of domestic industrial software enterprises. “A good industrial software, an excellent industrial software company, does not grow up so fast, at least three or five years, five 1788-EN2FFR to ten years, so it needs long-term financial support.” But equity investments at the moment tend to give companies only three years, so there is a misalignment of funding horizons.” “Hutchinden said.

In addition, Lei Yi said that piracy of industrial software has a seriously damaging impact on the development of domestic industrial software and enterprises. It is suggested that relevant departments organize actions to clean up pirated software, and guide and urge enterprises to use legitimate software.
