Lean ops for startups: 4 leaders share their secrets

Wednesday, August 5, 2015

As a CTO, VP R&D, or CIO at a technology startup you typically need to maneuver and make the most out of limited budgets. Chances are, you’ve never had your CEO walk in and tell you, “We’ve just closed our Series A round. You now have unlimited funding to launch version 1.5.”
So how do you extract real value from what you’re given to work with? We’re gathering four start technology leaders for a free webinar discussion around exactly that: their strategies and tactics for operating lean.
They will cover key challenges and share tips and tricks for:

Reducing burn rate by making smart tech choices

Getting the most out of a critical but finite resource - your dev team

Avoiding vendor lock-in so as to maximize cost efficiencies

We’ve invited the following technology leaders from some of today’s most dynamic startups:

Yorick Phoenix, CTO, Issio Solutions

Erich Ess, CTO, Simple Relevance

Greg Roodt, CTO, AirHelp

Raphael Ouzan, CTO, BillGuard
