The Start-Up Factory works with entrepreneurs, early stage startups and investors to help articulate, define and realise their vision, utilising a partial sweat equity model to help these start-ups get to the next stage of their journey, including Proof-of-Concept (PoC) and Minimum Viable Product (MVP) builds.

In this episode, CTO Aleksa Vukotic discusses exactly what early stage start-ups can expect from The Start-Up Factory & what their process looks like. He then discusses crucial early-stage hires, how to know if you are making the right hire and what to look out for in a candidate during those early stages, unpicking what leaders think they want in a hire vs. what they actually need...

Aleksa then dives into what he thinks can be done to bring the tech community in Manchester together and facilitate more ‘Manchester made’ businesses, and how Manchester could produce more C-Suite level figures. 

Finally, Aleksa covers how early stage businesses can match an investors appetite, including the mistakes he often sees being made and the advice he would give to founders who are feeling the pressure for results from their investor.

A really great episode with lots of tangible advice!
