How to reach engineering leaders in Czechia, priced.
You want CTOs, VPs and engineering managers in Czechia to know your company: to hire from their teams, to educate your own leaders, or to put your product in front of budget owners. Five routes get you into that room. Only one of them publishes its prices, which tells you something about the other four. Here they are side by side.
| Route | What it costs | Who you reach | What it measurably delivers |
|---|---|---|---|
| ELC company membership | Published: packages from EUR 0 to EUR 25,000 a year, category exclusivity EUR 32,000 all-in | At least 88 CTOs, 44 VPs, 173 Directors and Heads on record; 120+ leaders at each of 12 yearly meetups | 2.7 engineering leaders a month hired by partner companies, measured |
| Tech Execs | Not published; partnership deck on request. Masterclass EUR 1,299 a person | Their claim: 200+ CTOs and tech C-level, 150+ VPs and Directors, 50+ Heads | No outcome numbers published |
| Your own event | Venue, catering, production, plus weeks of a senior person’s time | Whoever your own list can pull; assembling senior engineers is the hard part | Depends entirely on the list you start with |
| Conference booth | Thousands of EUR for days of presence | Foot traffic, mostly ICs; leaders route around booths | Badge scans, mostly unqualified |
| Recruiter | €15 to €25K per senior hire per senior hire | One candidate pipeline per mandate | One hire per fee, no brand or education effect |

Published prices beat decks on request
Almost nobody in this market publishes partnership prices. ELC does: Starter from €900 a seat a year at a 3 seat minimum · Talent reach €12,000 · Education €15,000 · Vital €10,000 · Visibility €14,000 · Story €25,000 · Product €20,000 per year, every line item costed in the configurator, and a €3,500 Pilot Meetup credited in full against a package signed within 90 days. You can price your whole year before the first call, which is exactly how your own procurement wishes every vendor worked.
What companies got out of it
Partner companies hire 2.7 engineering leaders a month from the community. Everpure hired 3 Director+ leaders over 2 years. Ataccama made 4 senior hires including a VP Platform. Apify has renewed 3 years running. Each of those hires would have cost €15 to €25K per senior hire through a recruiter, so the arithmetic tends to close itself. The room behind these numbers is counted on the statistics page.
Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to reach engineering leaders in Czechia?
Through ELC, the whole price list is public: company-membership packages run from EUR 0 to EUR 25,000 a year, with a EUR 3,500 Pilot Meetup as the try-before-you-commit entry, credited in full against a package. For comparison, one recruiter mandate for one senior hire runs €15 to €25K per senior hire.
What is the difference between ELC and Tech Execs for a company?
Scale and measurability. ELC publishes an exact member count, a title census, package prices and hiring outcomes; Tech Execs publishes audience claims and shares terms as a deck on request. Both rooms exist; only one lets you check the numbers before the first call.
Can a recruiting agency buy an ELC partnership?
No. Recruiters and agencies cannot buy one, and partners do not buy stage time either. Talks are picked on content, which is why the room keeps showing up.
Where do the numbers on this page come from?
ELC figures come from the community's registry, published with methodology on the statistics page. Tech Execs figures were read from techexecs.cz on 2026-08-21. If either has moved, weare@engineeringleaders.io takes corrections.
