Synergy, Commitment, Talent, Experience, Drive, Honesty, Adaptability. Pick someone who fills your gaps, covers your weaknesses and you'd work with then for free because you enjoy working together. I'd recommend before signing any contracts or forming an actual business to make a side product not related to what you want to build or do but something you guys have experience in. See if you work well together and can solve a simple problem together. Typically you'll run in to issues if not that's great but you want issues and problems because great cofounders solve things together. Chances are youll fail and learn or get luck and make money to fund your new venture!
