Strategic tech leadership for SMEs — fraction of the cost
Get your own CTO for a fraction of cost
Software projects are complex to lead. The person at the top needs deep technical expertise, hands-on experience running engineering teams, business judgement, and the ability to keep pace with rapidly evolving technologies — cloud, data, AI/ML, security and compliance.
Hiring a full-time CTO is expensive and often unnecessary for SMEs and scale-ups. A fractional CTO from Vantino provides senior technical leadership a few days per month: tech strategy, architecture decisions, build-vs-buy choices, hiring, vendor management, and security and compliance posture (Swiss DSG, GDPR, ISO 27001, SOC 2).
Whether you need to ship a first product, scale an existing one, recover a stalled project, or assess technical debt before fundraising, a fractional CTO gets you senior judgement on call — without a six-figure full-time hire.
Tech leadership, on your terms — Swiss-managed, vendor-neutral.
