Get the knowledge & confidence to go from idea to product
In this class, you will get an overview of the basic concepts you need to run or launch a tech startup as a non-technical founder from someone who has done it themselves.
A non-technical founder’s job is not to learn to code, but to successfully manage the technology production process and make sure it aligns with business goals. To do this, non-technical founders need to understand technology workflows, learn how to ask the right questions and collaborate with designers and developers.
If you are working on a specific idea, this is an ideal opportunity to get live expert feedback.
What you'll get:
- The Non-Technical Founder's Introduction To Tech masterclass
- Guide on how to go from idea to product
- Suggested reading & listening materials for non-technical founders
- Recording with lifetime access

I thought that the tech for non-techies class by Sophia was absolutely excellent.
Was a really well presented, practical and succinct overview of how to bring a tech product to market – the steps and the people involved.

I attended Tech for Non-Technical Founders and it helped me understand all the aspects involved in developing an app, and helped me get investment to build my first prototype.
Sophia explained everything in a very clear and simple way. I couldn’t recommend this class highly enough.
Hi! I’m Sophia
I'm the founder Tech For Non-Techies, an online learning community. I have contributed to the Financial Times, The Guardian and Forbes on entrepreneurship and technology. I also led the Blackstone x Techstars accelerator at the University of Texas , and guest lectured at Chicago Booth and London Business School.
As a non-technical founder, I have co-created apps and algorithms that have been used by thousands, won App of the Day by Mashable, and were featured by Inc, the BBC and more.
I love helping entrepreneurs and innovators and have advised Chicago Booth’s New Venture Challenge and the Microsoft x London College of Fashion incubator.
I hold an MBA from Chicago Booth, and a BSc (Hons) in Politics from Bristol.
I also speak Russian and French.
I split my time between London and the South of France, where I play tennis and sail with huge enthusiasm and very little skill.
