Azerbaijan’s software development and related consulting services expanded 29% in real terms in January-October, with a value of AZN 641.5 million, according to the State Statistical Committee.
The wider information and communication sector delivered AZN 3.64 billion in services, growing 9.9% in real terms. Software and consulting accounted for 17.6% of the total value. Internet services expanded 21.6%.
The breakdown separates software activity from a broader market that also includes telecommunications and other information services. The sector-wide rate therefore does not describe every individual segment.
The published total is neither software export revenue nor a measure limited to startups. Evaluating international sales or young companies would require separate data. Growth in service volumes also does not reveal developers’ profitability or how contracts are distributed among suppliers.
