Do you know how to hire the best possible team to grow your company? Alternatively, as an early stage founder, how do you identify the right investors? How do you nail virtual pitch meetings? What is the market fit of the product? Should you bootstrap and if so, how do you do it successfully? How do you make the right financial decisions for both your organization and yourself? You got the question. The answer for you in the early stages of TechCrunch will be April 1 and 2nd.
At the Virtual Event, we are bringing together the most seasoned operators in the legal, hiring, product, data protection and sales tunnels to help you find your way through strategic dichotomy in the bright light of success. If you are in the middle of creating an organization, this show is perfect for the time being. In addition, audience members will be able to ask their own questions to our expert speakers at each breakout session. Of course, the show will cover more than the operational challenge. We have many, many sessions around raising money from how to think about how to attract investors to increase your series.
