The recipe for success is a combination of highly skilled technical people working in cross-sector teams and involvement of a range of alternate sector professionals. Additionally, the strong participatory design tradition in Denmark ensures that various interdisciplinary design groups as well as end-users are involved throughout the process, thus ensuring innovative and holistic software solutions.
