The same wisdom holds true on the long road to creating a good product.

If you want to grow, be sure to get an awesome CTO

June 7, 2021

The evolution of technology startups in the past few decades has been immense. A mere 30 years ago hardware was relatively easy to innovate in, as companies had not set up their digital infrastructure, and the pace of overall innovation was slower. Nowadays the focus has shifted completely onto software, where it is easier to implement incremental updates and integrate into existing infrastructure. Within this ever changing environment, the Chief Technology Officer (CTO) plays a pivotal role, with skills that are increasingly valuable within strategic decision making, not just execution.

Unlike VCs, rather than scouting for the entrepreneurs that are already turning those ideas into businesses, venture builders identify ideas and incubate businesses around them themselves — only then bringing in entrepreneurs and “founding” teams.
