Thank you. That was pretty much my thinking too. I understand the technology (just can't create it myself) and I've been balancing Business Requirements and User Needs for years so have that covered. And while our idea/implementation might be easy to copy (in fact it's already been done by others in different markets) our data is proprietary and unique. And that is our real value differentiator. The tech directors role as I saw it was to oversee the product from a technical perspective. Choose the technology, hire and manage the development team etc.
