Our Story
What happens when a fully engaged CTO combines with the seasoned experience of an Executive Coach?
This is exactly what happened in 2013 when 7CTOs was formed by Etienne de Bruin and Michael Saul. After more than two years spent meeting 300+ CTOs in four cities across the United States, it was clear there was an urgent need for CTO leadership training in technology strategy and execution to transcend their silos, and form close-knit communities of their peers and mentors.
7CTOs was Started as a Social Enterprise
— commercial strategy to maximize improvements in human and environmental well-being, rather than maximizing profits for external shareholders.
