The document discusses Quidgest, a company that develops software solutions using an automated code generation platform called Genio. Some key points: - Quidgest has been generating software automatically for 25 years using Genio to address challenges like requirements management and maintaining old code. - Genio allows rapid application development through simulation, code generation, and automation using model-driven development. It provides technology independence and enables mass personalization. - Automating code generation has a huge impact, allowing developers to write code 1,000,000 times faster than manually. This enables extremely short development cycles and more opportunities for customization. - Quidgest has used Genio to develop large, complex systems for clients

Quantitative => Qualitative change
1. Agility (Agile fits better than classic waterfall)
2. Extremely short development cycles
3. More iterations (a lot more)
4. Ideas from key users (open innovation / crowd sourcing)
5. Exclusive Software (quantity needed to break even = 1)
6. Mass Customization
7. Software ready to be changed, even late in development
8. Software for everything (Long Tail)

Quid makes dreams come true
• Quidgest’s Genio is not a prototype. It
is a mature technology and
methodology. It has been providing
Quidgest systems for the last 23 years
• Quidgest’s Genio is not a tool for small
applications, for marginal software. It
has been used to create huge systems,
with thousands of processes,
thousands of tables and GB of code
