In Sweden we build amazing startups! Though founders are heroes, there is no success without brilliant tech executors. Let us shed some light secret heroes who are on the verge of becoming tech superstars.
These guys and gals can code! They take ideas and create beautiful code, while breaking stuff to improve it. They might be passionate about open source, which is why they could have a Github or Stack Overflow profile filled with it. Great software developers tend to think: sharing is caring.
Magnificent creatives strive to create inspirational experiences through simplicity and thoughtful details. They love dialogue and they find inspiration in the feedback from the users they aim to delight. They create great interfaces whilst always keeping in mind that less is more!
Product vision is everything! They think the 'Lean Startup methodology' is gods gift to startups. They know how to prioritize resources, because they have themselves been producing techies. When someone has an idea they often shout: Thats a hypothesis - lets validate it!
