I've switched my own back end codebase to Clojure. It's just a joy to work with. Building REST with Liberator is a revelation. It's so easy to reason about what the code is doing, and immutability leads to far fewer bugs. Not missing objects, not at all.
The stock concern for businesses building with Clojure is the lack of talent and industry acceptance. I have a different angle. I figure that when I'm ready to start hiring other developers, I'll only be hiring developers sophisticated enough to see the benefits of using Clojure over Java/Ruby/Python/etc - and then I'll have the draw of letting them work in the best tools, not making them compromise so it's easier for management to hire less serious programmers.
