About the webinar:

It is a tough time for start-ups with having to deal with demand reducing, cash-flows tightening, and a transition to working from home. Many are trying out new models, doing MVPs to tide over these times. There may be a requirement for talent, but of course hiring at this time is a cost.

There are ways to tackle this and make the best of the situation. One of those is to hire expert and flexible talent i.e. high-quality, part-time talent for short duration engagements to start with, that will help manage cost and the uncertain business environment.

The webinar will outline about this talent, these talent models and how they can help start-ups at this time, and even beyond.
