Hello, i’m looking for some advice on where to find a technical co-founder. I’m very much in the beginning stages of my startup and have the initial concept and want to finish my MVP to fully validate my idea. I know that YC has said that the best people to start a startup with are people you have known for a which, like school/college or university friends. But! if you don’t have anyone in mind that would be a great fit within your own network, where have others gone to find cofounders? I have heard stories of cold contacting people on Linkedin and also YC’s co-founder matching. I would love heard other people stories and advice. My startup is in the PropTech space. Also, I reside in Australia. Thanks!
The analogy of finding a girlfriend or dating a girl for a few months then get married is what I’m hearing a lot and it makes sense. Being co founders is like a marriage and the startup is kind of your child.
