Hi guys,

I was just wondering if you were someone who had little to no grounding in tech as a founder of a tech (mobile app) company. Would you direct your efforts into CS/learning how to program or would you develop your business acumen / softer skills, potentially considering an MBA in marketing? I have no intention of writing the program but hope to find a tech confounder who would or at least be able to liaise with a dev team.

TIA

    A tech co-founder is the best move as it would be difficult for you to get to the level of expertise required to read code and advise developers. The key risk you now face, assuming you have outsourced development: 1) loyal staff 2) are they really working or saying it’s 10hrs for a 5min fix 3) Is platform /infrastructure the best etc. etc. In effect you have no control and that’s not a good place for a CEO.
