I’ve been having discussions with several people recently about the role of the CTO (Chief Technology Officer) in very early stage companies.

As a long-time business advisor and angel investor, I’m a believer that “two heads are better than one” in building a new business.

I seldom hire patent attorneys during due diligence but this was too important. We hired OSHA regulatory lawyers.
