Why software/tech investing?

Hi all,

Recently been recruiting for funds with a tech/software focus and I wanted to see how people have flipped their stories and answered the "why software" piece effectively.

Don't have much of a background in technology but I have always found it fascinating. Would love to know how to really impress in interviews.

Thanks
