Software exports in 2004

NOTE: This article is from 14. July 2005 and is therefore more than 5 years old.

In recent years the Central Bank of Iceland has collected data from companies in Iceland about their exports of software and computer services. Software exports in 2004 amounted to 3,906 m.kr., a year-on-year increase of 526 m.kr., or 15.6%. Although exports of software and computer services have grown rapidly in recent years, they account for only just over 1% of Iceland’s total exports of goods and services. Nine companies exported software and computer services to the value of more than 100 m.kr. each in 2004.

A report on software exports in 2004, compiled by the Central Bank of Iceland Statistics Department, has been published in Icelandic on this website. An English translation is forthcoming.
