Tieste

Tieste is a young technology outfit first created to create and bring to market cool, interesting and innovative product ideas. Tieste is run by its Western founders, bringing a combined 40 years of experience in Australia, USA and Ireland in business development, software consulting, general and project management to the rich pool of development talent here in Ukraine. This makes Tieste special in a region dominated by large "body shop" businesses that hire out hundreds of programmers to Western clients. Tieste further distinguishes itself by proactively developing genuine partnership models in more than 60% of its portfolio, naming this business function "product incubation". One of these partnerships, Diarize, was included in the top 30 startups out of hundreds of startups participating in IDCEE 2012. Not surprisingly, perhaps, Tieste is closely involved with the startup and Internet entrepreneurship communities in Ukraine and other parts of the CIS. Tieste continues to seek, design, build, manage, publish tech products and product ideas, from mobile apps to an offshore office. We do design, consulting, management, development, investment. We don't do dozens of greenhorn, junior programmers with big hourly markups!
