The New Haven market for CCOs

Fractional executives supply the operating and financial structure grant-funded and venture-funded science companies need.

Why New Haven companies hire fractional CCOs

The typical trigger in this market is a financing or clinical milestone at a research-stage company with no commercial infrastructure. A fractional CCO gives you the same executive seat and customer judgment on 1–3 days per week, without the base salary, equity, and benefits load of a permanent hire.

  • Churn or NRR is trending the wrong way
  • Support, success, and account management aren't coordinated
  • You are moving from SMB to mid-market or enterprise
  • The CS team is reactive and unowned
