Havana, Feb 25 (RHC) Cuba keeps trying to develop its software program industry, a sector with the potential to generate export revenues and replace imports despite ongoing international challenges like brain drain.

During a meeting of local experts in the field of the software industry, deputy Communications minister Grisel Reyes said that the local software industry counts on highly skilled professionals and the potential for exports in tune with its competitiveness.

Reyes said that 30 state companies, two technological parks, and 161 private companies are contributing to the local software sector, however, the industry still needs to achieve higher quality and personnel preparation to garner a place in different markets.

The Minister of Economy Alejandro Gil Fernandez suggested the industry produce software programs attractive for the youths and in tune with current times and challenges, as well as with internal and international changes.

The Cuban government official stressed the interaction of state-own companies with private businesses in the sector. (Source: ACN).
