For all the aspiring non-technical founders
- samirahmed 15y agoThe last statement, "you need us more than we need you" is definitely arguable. I believe that there are aspects such as leadership, foresight and intuition that can't be taught or learnt with a college degree or from a book. These things CAN be brought to the table by people with non-technical backgrounds and can be more valuable than all the technical background in the world, because most technical professionals can easily be replaced by the next applicant.
- weekendlogic 15y agoLeadership, foresight and intuition are needed in a technical founder as well. There are many many more non technical people looking to do a start-up; it is also the case that most non-technical professionals can easily be replaced. But remember we are talking of partners, not employees.
