Working with remote teams - London stories

London is one of the biggest startup cities on Earth as it became a home for more than 4000 startups. A lot of these startups are working on software products trying to disrupt various industries not only in the UK but globally. Such a powerful boost lead to a substantial lack of qualified engineers. That’s why more and more companies look for nearshore development partners that can help to accelerate product development. As people still find working with remote teams risky and unsure how to get into this, we organize an event to answer those questions and share real London-based success stories.

So, if you are:

• Founder / Co-Founder of a startup
• Chief Product Officer (CPO) / Head of Product / Product Manager
• CTO / VP of Engineering / Head of Engineering

And you are trying to grow your development team, then this event is a good opportunity to:

1. Learn how to find a reliable remote team;
2. Find out how to manage such teams and what are the pitfalls there;
3. Learn how to structure communication and delivery processes;
4. Discover the real stories of two enterprise-level startups;
5. Become aware of the entire process of scaling a remote team.
