About event
Startups have their own product development specifics. You have to deliver fast, measure the traction, process early adopters’ feedback, be able to scale fast – you name it! We would like to bring up two topics that may be not so obvious when you just start implementing your idea, but often create major problems at later stages of startup development:
- Dealing with Technical Debt. Speaker Dmytro Lapshyn, Chief Technology Officer at Sigma Software.
What are the reasons for software projects accruing technical debt? Is technical debt always absolute evil as certain software purists would have us believe? What are the proper ways to prevent, control and redeem technical debt that would not put the business goals at risk? Join our event and get the answers to these questions from an expert. Find out about the dangers of technical debt before you face them!

Currently he is also leading several R&D projects that explore implementation of the innovative technology such as augmented, mixed, and virtual reality.
- Ensuring Cybersecurity. Speaker Anton Marukha, Key Account Manager/Business Development Manager at Sigma Software.
Cybersecurity is a holistic system: a fragmentary solution will not provide a complete protection from cyber attacks, your business needs to have a set of measures applied. However, you cannot have all and everything at once for many reasons, including costs and resources availability. Anton will speak about number one tasks you need to complete to ensure cybersecurity - identify measures that are important for your business and assist in prioritizing and implementing them.
About the speaker:
Anton is an experienced Senior Project Manager and Account Manager who works with both startups and enterprise companies in various domains, including real estate, construction, digital marketing and advertisement, energy supply, and others. His duties include business development, delivery supervision, helping customers to create and maintain successful business together with Sigma Software.
