I’ve been having discussions with several people recently about the role of the CTO (Chief Technology Officer) in very early stage companies. In December 2007, I described how I commonly take on an Acting CTO Role in a Start-up. Rather they should get a part-time Acting CTO who can help close the gap.

There are two kinds of advisors that are commonly needed. Strategic Technical Advisor. Tactical Technical Advisor.
