How We Support Universities
Cost-Efficient Development Support
We will provide cost-efficient design and software development support to build the first versions of the entrepreneurs' digital products, and to scale them up when the time is right. We offer preferential rates and additional CTO support free of charge.
Pro Bono Educational Sessions
We offer pro bono lectures, Q&A sessions, workshops, and panel talks. Topics include AI, career paths, non-obvious tech professions, interview preparation, and how to win internship opportunities. The talks are very actionable and practical, with the goal of building the confidence and enlightening about potential opportunities.
CTO-Led Everything
Every collaboration, talk, hackathon, or project that we run - includes free CTO support. Our fractional CTOs provide strategic technical leadership with years of industry experience across different sectors.
Preferential Rates
University students and programme participants receive special discounted rates for continuous development and recruitment services.
No Vendor Lock-In
We run all projects in such a way that it's easy to hand over to your in-house team whenever you're ready. We document everything thoroughly and support your team during handover.
Ongoing Support
Once the main project is complete, we would love to continue supporting you and your community of founders with fractional CTO, development, and recruitment services, as well as with additional talks and educational sessions.
