How To Perform Technical Due Diligence
Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing.
Investors perform diligence on a startup before investing.
Most of the diligence focuses on the financial aspects of the business.
Technical diligence is just as important.
For startups, it’s also important to focus on the technical aspects.
Here’s a list of areas to review for technical due diligence:
Architecture
Review the technical architecture for scalability and robustness.
Check the architecture for fit with the application.
Code
Review the code for quality and documentation.
Are there processes for testing and verification?
Security
Review the code for security measures.
Perform penetration exercises to check its strength.
People
Interview the technical team for their technical background and skills.
See if the skills match the project requirements.
Intellectual property
Review the intellectual property to see if the key technical features are covered.
Consider these steps in performing technical due diligence on a startup.
Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
