How Do You Work With Other Senior Leaders?

What is expected of a CTO in the modern business? How are these expectations changing?

Grab a front-row seat to the most in-depth discussions of what it means to be a senior leader in a technology organisation, how to build a solid foundation with other C-level leaders, how to ensure alignment between engineering and other functions and how to keep you and your team’s skills sharp.

Join us for two days of expert talks and panels where you’ll be able to learn from CTO Craft community members.

The World’s Best CTOs & Engineering Leaders

Join the conversation, and network with CTOs from some of the world’s most successful startups.

Continue The Conversation

Join almost 5,000 other CTOs and engineering leaders in the free CTO Craft Slack community, where we’ll host additional discussions and Q&As with the speakers.

You’re Not Alone

It can be lonely at C-suite level. Connect with hundreds of other senior tech leaders and find out who else has navigated the challenges you’re facing.

Actionable Insights

Speakers and guests with real-world experience will share their practical, actionable insights. More than just inspiring, you’ll leave with new tools and strategies ready to use.

Don’t Just Take Our Word For It

CTO Craft Con was amazing, the best virtual conference experience so far. Thank you for organizing it!

Boris Penck

CTO at Productsup

I was happily surprised to see that the struggles I encounter in my job are, in fact, common. It's reassuring.

Théo Bocquelet

Technical Director at Domoscio

It was a very thought-provoking event, and good to see a people-centric approach.

Mike Yorwerth

CTO at Marks and Spencer

I will be referring back to some of the talks. Such good quality content and discussion.

Nicholas Botes

Head of Engineering at OfferZen

So much great content. I was surprised by how good a talk on Imposter Syndrome could be for example.

Davy McGeorge

Head of Tech Ops at iwoca

The content was very topical. Some of it really firms up some of the changes I'm making at Giacom.
