Amplified capability and deep expertise

Placeholder illustration

When our founders have questions, we don’t always have the answers.

But we definitely know someone who does.

That’s why we created Tidal’s Expert Network #ten.

They’ve grown companies and succeeded at scale

Our global network of technology founders and executives have been in the trenches and know the pitfalls of starting out and trying to scale. Their expertise extends beyond borders, industries, company stages, and business functions.

When founders access #ten’s collective knowledge, it’s like having lifetimes of experience and centuries of wisdom in their back pocket. #ten is there as a cheer squad or a truth bomber, a technologist or a thought leader, an interim c-suite executive or a solid referral.
