Finding great co-founders and early team members can make or break your startup. However, the pandemic is making it harder to connect and find people that share your passions or have the specific skillsets you are looking for. To help, we are hosting a “Co-Founder Speed Matchmaking & Networking Event". This live and interactive event starts with a brief presentation on the best practices for finding & formalizing a co-founder, followed by a 1:1 speed networking session where you will be matched based on your event entry submission form. This will be followed by a long group & 1:1 networking session to connect with others around the world.
It is not required, but to get the most out of this co-founder networking event:
- Come ready for live video networking and prepare the materials listed on this Co-Founder Networking Worksheet
- Be sure to join the event using a laptop/ desktop and the Chrome or Firefox browser or download the Airmeet Mobile App. Networking features are limited on other devices & browsers.
