Any tips on how to find a technical co-founder?
Any good reads on how or where to find a Co-founder. I am non technical and need a technical co-founder. Not really sure where to start looking. An and all advice, links etc. would be greatly appreciated !
- coderintherye 5y agoHave coffees with technical people and ask them to introduce you to technical people they know who may be looking for opportunities at the moment. You should also learn enough to understand why you need a technical co-founder and what you would want most out of them.

- GianFabien 5y agoSome great ideas in that post. As I see it you have to bring some awesome value to the table. Having an idea is a good start but not enough. If you have no technical expertise, then you need to have a strong knowledge of the field in which your idea will be sold. The strongest complement to a technical co-founder is the proven ability to sell and make money. Good technical people are very much in demand. If you can't offer a decent salary plus substantial equity, you will need to have an amazing idea and a credible, effective plan to making it profitable on equity alone.
