Metrics That Drive Business Growth

Vijay Tirathrai, Managing Director, Techstars

10-Mar-23 12:00

Metrics That Drive Business Growth

What gets measured gets managed is a key management phrase that’s often credited to famed management theorist, Peter Drucker. This looks to be even more relevant today given the emphasis today for businesses to be data-driven to achieve the best possible outcome in every step of the way, from manufacturers to service providers and everyone in between.

But like all things, focusing too much on metrics or the wrong metrics can lead to disaster, so how does one use the right numbers and stats to drive scale and growth?

Today we will be speaking to Vijay Tirathrai, Managing Director at Techstars on how to scale a startup fast and sustainably by using the right business metrics.

Vijay will be in KL from March 15-17, speaking at EO Taipan’s 2023 event - ‘Challenge the Storm’. Learn more at: https://eotaipan.com/masterclass-2023/
