Past projects

Services

Fractional CTO

Early-stage startups need strong technical leadership but don’t always require a full-time CTO. We provide hands-on, execution-focused support to solve complex problems, accelerate progress, and minimize uncertainty and costly mistakes. We help define product vision and roadmap, validate technology, align technical, IP, and business strategies, and build scalable teams—without unnecessary overhead.

Prototype & Product Development

We take technology from concept to working product—handling feasibility, prototyping, and scalable product development to bridge the gap between idea and execution.

External Innovation & Problem-Solving

Established corporation and scaling companies often struggle to dedicate internal resources to new initiatives or complex problems. We act as an external innovation and problem-solving team—researching, validating, and developing new product ideas or tackling difficult technical challenges —without disrupting existing priorities.

Due Diligence for Investors

Hardtech investments come with high technical and execution risk. We provide deep technical assessments, evaluating feasibility, scalability, and risks to ensure confident, well-informed decisions.
