With our riskfree outsourcing strategy and our local support companies are can finish their projects faster, cheaper and at the highest quality level.
Why are companies afraid of outsourcing software development?
With so many happy customers we often wonder why clients are afraid of outsourcing software development. The biggest obstacle still seems to be the English language for daily communication with the external developers. It is hard to believe, but a large percentage of medium-sized companies in Germany are unwilling or unable to communicate with external development teams in English. In reality it is not difficult to switch the communication to english and everybody will benefit from the new international environment because English is not only the global business language but also the programming language. We like to share our 20 years of experience and give you 5 tips for the best IT Strategie.
Onsite versus remote
The second reason is even more worrying. Many companies still insist that their employees work on-site and not remotely. This is very unusual for IT companies compared to global standards. Even before Covid-19, many companies had allowed more flexible working hours. The pandemic has greatly increased this trend. Even though our teams work remotely we have various face-to-face meetings with our customers.
Things are changing – outsourcing is the new trend
Recently, there is an increasing trend towards more outsourcing. The main drivers are:
1. An extreme shortage of skilled workers (there is a shortage of 134,000 IT experts according to Bitkom)!
2. Even recruitment agencies are unable to fill the gap
3. On average it takes more than 6 months to find a suitable candidate while we have all the engineers you need.
4. The few available local experts demand too high wages and do not offer equivalent performance.
5. The combination of outsourcing with local support and very fast supply of excellent software engineers at competitive price seems to be the favourite solution for many companies.

90% aller Start-ups scheitern. Aber warum?
90% aller Start-ups scheitern. Aber warum? Sie haben nichts falsch gemacht, denn die Ursachen liegen viel tiefer. Wir von HGH Innovation haben viel Erfahrung mit Start-ups und wir haben viele Unternehmen kommen und gehen sehen.
Welches sind die Voraussetzungen für ein erfolgreiches Start-up? Warum scheitern einige Tech Start-ups scheitern während andere erfolgreich sind? Nach unserer Erfahrung ist eine Voraussetzung für einen erfolgreichen Start, sich möglichst früh mit dem geplanten Absatzmarkt auseinanderzusetzen und dabei pragmatisch und kostensparend vorzugehen.
Unternehmensgründung light – Die Strategie für Start-ups
Wenn 90% aller Start-ups scheitern. Aber warum? Das können wir ganz genau beantworten, denn wir erleben es in unserer Praxis täglich. Unternehmensgründung light ist eine bereits 2013 von HGH Innovation GmbH eingeführte Strategie für Start-ups. Hier unsere Vorgehensweise:
Das Start-Up Unternehmen hat am Anfang nicht viel mehr als ein paar ungesicherte Ideen und Vorstellungen. Diese werden in einem kurzen „Businessplan-light“ zusammengefasst. Der Plan zeigt in Kurzform auf, worum es geht und welche Werte für zukünftige Kunden und Investoren geschaffen werden können.
- Nun wird es spannend: Das Start-up Unternehmen verlässt von Anfang an seinen Elfenbeinturm bzw. Schreibtisch. Wir gehen mit unserem Klienten kontinuierlich und aktiv auf potentielle Kunden, Partner, Investoren und Nutzer zu. Hierdurch erhalten wir Feedback zu Fragen des Geschäftsmodells, des Designs, des Konzeptes, des Vertriebskanals, der Preisgestaltung usw. Das gesamte Feedback wird immer wieder in den Produktentwicklungsprozess eingeführt und die Produktentwicklung wird auf diese Weise von Anfang an vom Markt beeinflusst.
- Auch bei der Produktentwicklung selbst sparen wir viel Geld und Zeit für unseren Kunden ein. Auch wenn es sich noch um Vorstufen des endgültigen Produkts handelt, stellen wir diese immer verschiedenen Testgruppen vor . Dies ist eine Anleihe an die in der Software Industrie schon seit langem gängigen Praxis.
Wir beraten Start-ups

Disruptive Technologies can kill your business in record time!
It is a fact that Disruptive Technologies can kill your business in record time. „We are surprised how naive leaders of big enterprises are when judging the risks of their company“, says innovation expert Heinrich Hess of HGH Innovation GmbH in Munich. But can disruptive innovation be prevented? Hess‘ answer is clear: „No, unfortunately not! In case of a combination of circumstances disruptive innovation with all their negative implications cannot be prevented!“
Disruption has been ongoing since many years
- Weight watchers loosing market share to smart phone apps offering cheaper or free of charge solutions
- Car industry loosing sales by Carsharing
- Piano teachers are replaces by online courses
- Navigation devices have since long been replaced by apps
- Print media is more and more replaced by digital services
- Heartfrequency devices replaced by apps
- Radio replaced by webradio
- House- and energy control by apps
- Language courses replaced by online apps
- Travel guides replaced by online apps
- Cooking books replaced by online apps
- Books replaced by e-books
- Bank employees replaced by online banking
- Realestate agents replaced by online apps
- Construction of prototypes and more by 3D Printers
- Calculators replaced by smartphones
- ….. and millions more…..
What can be done against disruptive innovations?
The first step is to become aware of the actual or potential disruptive innovations in your market. The consultants from HGH Innovation GmbH are constantly scanning markets and can give important hints for the newest developments in specific industries. In close cooperation with their clients they analyse the situation and check their specific danger potential. The side effect is that through this process new developments can be initiated which improve the competitivenes and the chances for survival in the forseeable future. In some cases companies could be saved by investing in exactly those technologies which were threatening their market position.
„Company owners never realize that they might be bancrupt in less than one year if they do not react immediately“ – Heinrich Hess, HGH Innovation GmbH.
Disruptive technologies „out of nowhere“
Disruptive innovations arise from the lower end of the market and from new markets. For the established companies they appear completely unexpected! And disruptive innovations have another very unpleasant attribute which is that they appear kind of „carmouflaged“ and are barely detectable. In the beginning they are so small that they are not even visible and even when they become visible they seem to address such a very small market so that they seem to be completely uninteristing.
This can happen very fast. After a certain time, however, things are often changing dramatically. With a phenomenal growthrate existing markets, products or services can be completely or partly eliminated.
At first the disruption is hardly remarkable but suddenly very strong
At the beginning of their development disruptive technologies are often still inferior to established products. As an example USB flash storage devices were still inferior to HDD with regard to capacity, reliability and price. This is why for several years PCs still contained HDD rather than flash storage. But this has rapidly changed.
In case of analog cameras the short fight has been decided in favour to digital camaras many years ago. Also in this case digital cameras could at first not yet convince with regard to resolution and picture quality. Resolution of less than 1 Megapixel seemed to be a very big disadvantage in comparison to the classical analog cameras. But very soon the huge advantages of this technology became obvious: results could be checked immediately, snapshorts could be taken without any limitation and free of charge and pictures could be stored digitally or printed without any further delay. In the meanwhile the picture quality has been improved so much that digital cameras have replaced analog cameras nearly 100%.
