Why is Technology Due Diligence not really about Technology?

Many founders assume it's simply a review of their code.

It isn't.

Technology Due Diligence is about understanding whether the business has the foundations to continue growing after investment.

Investors want confidence that:

• The technology is secure, scalable and maintainable.
• The leadership team understands the decisions that have been made.
• Technical debt is recognised and managed, not ignored.
• The product, delivery processes and technology strategy can support future growth.

As Richard explains in this conversation, technical debt isn't necessarily a problem. In fact, every growing business has it.

The real risk is not understanding it, not being able to explain it, or not having a plan for it.

In this first clip from our new Aldemis podcast series, Richard shares why Technology Due Diligence is about far more than technology, and what investors are really looking for behind the scenes.
