As for growing up as a company we are working very hard.  Having been in business since 2001 I think we are doing fairly well with over 100 customers and 400+ applications delivered with our solution.  Regarding the global market, we have some customers who use our technology to deliver applications in not just in their local language but all the languages needed to support their business around the globe.   Delivering for a global market place is greatly simplified by the OutSystems All-in-One Agile Platform. As for OutSystems itself, we have done quite well in establishing ourselves in Portugal as you have pointed out.   In addition, we are getting good traction in Benelux more than 15 customers and now have over eight customers in the USA.   So please keep watching OutSystems.   We will continue to grow as organizations realize that a complete delivery and management environment for running Agile projects is far superior to using some of the popular frameworks, and mix mash of other tools needed to deliver a working application in a rapid, iterative - agile way.
