Co-founding teams often come in CEO and CTO pairs, focused respectively on growing a business and developing a product. As a result, the company's internal operations can be overlooked or left in inexperienced hands. Savvy founding teams understand the value of outsourcing oversight and execution of business operations to experienced professionals until the company’s growth can sustain a senior full-time hire.
Our consultants have spent years managing business operations in Silicon Valley. While we draw on experiences with proven financial and operational practices, we do not offer cookie-cutter solutions, believing each company needs fresh ideas and unique approaches. We’ll work with your team to build the right foundations for growth, tailored to how you want to scale. When needed, we can engage with known, high-value experts that keep costs to a minimum.
Start-ups are our focus, but our experience extends to a variety of small organizations, boutique venture capital firms, and emerging projects within larger corporations.
