Boutique technology advisory for SMBs. Independent, senior-only, focused on what actually moves the P&L.
For twenty years we sat in boardrooms where technology was either treated like a religion or like a plumbing problem. Almost never as what it actually is: the most powerful business lever an SMB will ever touch. Stradiax is the firm we wished existed from the other side of the table.Stradiax Position
Six things make Stradiax structurally different by design. None of them are accidental.
No vendor partnerships, no reseller agreements, no license quotas to hit at quarter-end. Your decision being right is our only incentive, and that's why a recommendation from us holds up in a boardroom.
We sit at the strategy table and stay there. Implementation is handled by your teams or your integrators, and that separation is what lets us tell you the truth.
Every method is calibrated for a company of one hundred to one thousand people, where a wrong decision shows up in next quarter's P&L.
The person who signs the mandate is the person doing the work. No juniors translating context, no delegated slide decks.
Success is measured in decisions made with confidence and margin that actually moves. Any other metric is noise.
You talk to the person who decides, has seen a hundred cases like yours and stays with you from the first conversation to the last. That continuity is already half the battle.
An enterprise has scale, distribution, and inertia on its side. A bad technology decision hurts but rarely kills. An SMB has none of those buffers. The same decision either compounds into structural advantage or quietly drains the company over five years. The stakes are higher. The leverage is higher. And almost nobody in advisory is paying attention.
That's the entire premise of Stradiax. SMBs don't need less strategic technology thinking than the Fortune 500. They need more. And they need it from people who actually understand how SMBs run.
An SMB can decide in a week what a multinational decides in a year. Fewer layers, fewer politics, shorter distance between intent and action. When an SMB leadership team gets the strategic technology question right, the speed of execution turns into compounding margin growth, defensible market position, and a balance sheet that looks nothing like the average competitor in the same vertical.
We've seen it happen. Repeatedly. Across continents. The pattern is always the same: someone in the room reframes how technology is talked about, and within twelve months the company looks different. That's the work we exist to do.
Stradiax is boutique by design, not by size. What walks through the door is what gets delivered at the table: senior, independent, and never a junior team translating the brief.
The questions executives ask before working with Stradiax. Honest answers, no marketing fluff.
We don't sell delivery and we don't sell hours. We sell strategic posture: a senior advisor who challenges the brief, sharpens the question and gives you a position your board can defend. We sit at the decision table, not the implementation one.
Yes. Our sweet spot is mid-market companies between €10M and €200M. The smaller you are, the more disproportionate the value of having technology decisions made strategically. And the harder it is to find honest advisors who'll talk to you like an adult.
A few working sessions to map your context, an independent diagnosis, and an ongoing strategic mandate where we challenge decisions and support your thinking. No long deliverables. No timesheets. The output is the clarity, not the deck.
No. We sit one layer above the implementation. We help you decide what should happen, how to frame it, who should do it, and how to govern it from the board. The actual hands-on delivery belongs to your internal team or a delivery partner of your choice.
Strategic mandates typically range from €25k to €120k depending on scope and duration. Executive programs and board advisory roles are quoted separately. We don't bill by the hour and we don't have a price list. We have engagements.
Selectively, yes. We accept a small number of non-executive board roles per year where the strategic question is interesting and the leadership team is serious about acting on advice.
AI and automation, SAP technology, cybersecurity, operational resilience, and cloud strategy. Always framed as business levers, not as IT projects.
We're based in Madrid, Spain, and work globally. Most strategic sessions can run virtually; for board meetings and executive programs we travel.
A first conversation usually within a week. Strategic mandates can typically begin within 2-3 weeks once scope is clear. We don't take engagements we can't dedicate proper attention to.
Always. Every engagement starts with mutual confidentiality. Your strategic conversations stay between you and us.
