Thank you for the replies. <div><span style="font-size: 1rem;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-size: 1rem;">Our company is part of an 8-week accelerator designed to generate enough traction to leap frog into either TechStars, Ycombinator or 500 startups. </span></div><div><span style="font-size: 1rem;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-size: 1rem;">The lean startup challenge is to produce enough traction (1000 customers) with our budget (60k) to begin the next round of development in the next accelerator. </span></div><div><span style="font-size: 1rem;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-size: 1rem;">With all the solutions proposed with this budget constraint which is most likely to lead to achieving that goal.  </span></div><div><span style="font-size: 1rem;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-size: 1rem;"><br></span></div>

I am the CEO of a startup made up of students, we just won first place in our incubator. Our next milestone is to acquire either a CTO who can develop our mobile application and website; or hire a development firm to do produce our application.<div><br></div><div>None of us on our team have the experience or skills to handle the project management. We have a two to three-week deadline to find a solution. </div><div><br></div><div>I am looking for guidance in how to hire an individual or two individuals for the project, or should we go with a development firm.</div><div><br></div><div>To be frank we don't even know what skills we should be looking for. We are building a fitness application that uses machine learning for pattern detection. Our MVP pulls fitness data from the smartwatch/smartphone combines it with data from the application, sends it to our server for processing and then returns the information to our app. </div><div><br></div><div>The website needs a store, a login with a dashboard for the fitness data and visualisations. </div><div><br></div><div>We need a IOS application and watchOS for the apple smartwatch. </div><div><br></div><div>What is the best solution for our predicament?</div>
