Getting Your Startup’s Technology Built
Not everyone is fortunate enough to be technologist or have a co-founder with a tech background. Many of our region’s entrepreneurs get stuck in a quandary – how do I find a developer, how do I manage a development project, how do I choose the best platform to develop my ideas, how do I evaluate talent, and the list goes on.
PSL is working on a series of discussions lead by entrepreneurs, CIO’s and CTO’s who can answer these technology development questions. This first one, on June 14th from 6:30-8:30 at the Baiada Center on Drexel’s Campus, will be lead by Niraj Patel (see bio below).
Niraj will begin tackling this issue by starting out with the simple question – What does your customer need? The first step in any technology development project is ensuring you are building the right product. Niraj will lead an interactive discussion that will give you insight into solving your most critical technology development issues by focusing on your customers first.
