Tyba’s measures for success and barriers to achieving them
Prepared for Eurapp, June 2013
Tyba reimaginesjunior recruitment
Tyba is an early-stage startup based in Madrid• Opened our offices September
2011 in Madrid, Spain
• 10 person team from 6 different
countries
• Growing to 20+ people this year
• Currently in the process of closing
a >1mm seed round
(announcement coming soon)
Key measures for success
• Viral growth factor
• # of people placed in jobs &
internships
• Key companies on board per
geography
• Penetration rate within key
universities
• Key people in Tyba’s talent
pipeline
• Securing public funding
Tyba’s #1 challenge in Madrid is recruiting engineering talent• Top talent in Spain is difficult to
reach out to and attract to startups
• We see a switch in mentality that
more young engineers choose
startups vs. corporates, so that
they “can have an impact on the
product”
However, it is still early-days
We see huge potential to build talent-bridges between countries in the EU • To expand our talent pool we
decided to start building talent
bridges:
Starting with Portugal-Spain:
• Hosting hackathon events
(first one 4-7th July in Lisbon)
• Reaching out to local
developer communities
• Improving communication
between the cities
