Their responsibilities may include overseeing the organization’s technology strategy, managing technology-related budgets and investments, evaluating and implementing new technologies, and ensuring that the organization’s technology infrastructure is aligned with its business goals and objectives.
Fractional CTOs work with organizations on a flexible basis, providing as much or as little support as needed, and are typically engaged to help organizations that are growing rapidly or undergoing significant technological change. They can be a cost-effective solution for smaller organizations that cannot afford a full-time CTO, but still need high-level technology expertise and leadership.
