About us
## What we're about
Startup Today - where people talk about startups, tech and innovation.
If you're involved in a startup, or thinking about starting one, chances are you can learn from others that are doing and thinking the same.
Startup Today is a catchup where founders, potential entrepreneurs and others in the startup community (VCs and Angels welcome) get together to learn something interesting, get feedback on ideas, vent frustrations, and meet some new friends in the game. We look forward to seeing you there!
You can contact the organisers either by sending a message through this meetup group.

Hiring remote developers in the age of AI: what actually works and what doesn't
·OnlineOnlineHiring remote developers in the age of AI: what actually works and what doesn't
AI coding tools have changed what a good developer looks like. The skills that mattered three years ago aren't the only ones that matter now, and the way a remote developer integrates into a lean team has shifted too.
But the fundamentals of making a remote dev relationship work haven't disappeared. Communication, context, clear direction, the right task for the trial. Getting those wrong still sinks an engagement regardless of how good the tooling is.
In this session Tekkon Sales Manager - Matt Ainsworth sits down with Amulya Lohani, Tekkon's Nepal-based CEO and Resourcing Manager, to talk honestly about what's changed and what hasn't. How they hire Tekkies now versus two years ago, what AI fluency actually looks like in a candidate, what a good client-developer relationship still requires from both sides, and where things go wrong when they do.
No deck. No pitch.
Just a straight conversation about how this model works in practice, and what the AI shift means for how you think about bringing in external dev talent.
We'll keep the session as interactive as possible, with time for questions at the end as well.
Who this is for:
Founders, CTOs and Tech Leaders at early to mid-stage startups who are figuring out how to scale dev capacity in a world where AI has changed the game but hasn't simplified every decision.If you're looking to scale your startup's dev team or looking for some help to do so - we'd love to see you there!
