Fractional CPO - Chief Product Officer

Develop winning products with experienced fractional CPOs. Get the product leadership you need to optimize user experiences, drive product-led growth, and achieve market success.

What is a Fractional CPO?

A fractional CPO is a senior product executive who works with your company on a part-time or project basis. They bring the strategic thinking and product expertise of a full-time CPO without the permanent commitment and full-time cost.

Fractional CPOs are particularly valuable for growing companies that need product leadership but aren't ready for a full-time executive hire. They can help with product strategy, user experience design, product-market fit, and building product teams.

Typical Engagement

  • 20-60% time commitment
  • 6-18 month engagements
  • €100-320 per hour
  • Immediate availability
