Welcome to the Better Tech Leadership podcast, where we connect with tech leaders from all over the world to share their know-how on bridging the gap between business and tech.
In this episode, host Matt Warcholinski, CEO of software development agency Brainhub talks with Lydia Varmazis, about her role as Head of Venture Portfolio at RBCx.
During the conversation they cover:
- How startup founders can make the most of their board members for strategy, hiring, and fundraising
- When to build, buy, or partner to drive innovation—especially in regulated industries
- Why scaling a team after MVP is often harder than building the product itself
- The value of making bold, contrarian career decisions that align with personal values
- Key metrics to track for portfolio success, including capital efficiency and strategic alignment
