Virtual CTO

A virtual or interim CTO adds CTO-level horsepower to your team, but is a variable resource that can be scaled up or down as needed.

 

Who does the work?

Example objectives for a virtual CTO project

Here are a few of the critical objectives a virtual CTO can tackle for you:

  • Identify the key technical milestones needed to demonstrate that your technology “works”, prior to the next financing round;
  • Put together a robust product roadmap and technology development plan, including timelines, milestones, key team skill sets, and budgets;
  • Help you hire the initial technical team, and make sure you have an A-player team that can work effectively to hit the key milestones.
  • Help troubleshoot key technology issues when your team gets “stuck”;
  • Review your current IP portfolio and decide what needs to be done to turn it into a strong barrier to competitors, and an asset for capital raising;
  • Put together a high powered Scientific Advisory Board;
  • Lead the technical team on a day-to-day basis to ensure you hit your milestones during some agreed upon interim time period;
  • Help you select the right permanent CTO for your business.

 

Who is our Virtual CTO service for?

Businesses based on complex science and technology which need CTO-level expertise on a temporary or variable basis.

Examples of when this is a good idea:

  • you are not yet far enough along to attract the right calibre individual as a permanent employee;
  • you are searching for a permanent CTO but finding the right individual will take months and you need help right now;
  • your team is short of bandwidth and you need a short term, heavy hitter with CTO-level experience for a specific project.
