Abstract

This paper empirically examines the factors influencing a UK-based software businesses’ expansion into the EU through a case study of Deontics, a UK-based software company. By conducting eight structured interviews with the company's top management team and analysing their responses using thematic analysis. The study identifies common challenges, including finance, marketing strategy, and leadership. Additionally, the study highlights the unique challenges posed by Brexit and COVID-19 pandemic, covering the gap in the body of literature regarding the expansion journey of UK-based software businesses, and evaluates how Deontics navigated these obstacles during their international expansion journey.
