They know this topic very well. Tanis Jorge co-founded her Trulioo and now he runs The Cofounder’s Hub, a service that helps founders identify their needs and find the co-founders who work best for their situation. increase. David Blumberg of Blumberg Capital was one of Trulioo’s first investors and has invested in all rounds of Trulioo, including his $394 million Series D.
We are pleased to host this conversation on internal partnerships. The importance of co-founders is often underestimated. A good co-founder should offer complementary skills. You may be good at coding but need help managing your business. Alternatively, a good co-founder might be someone who can help you manage the emotional burden that comes with starting a venture. And no partner is more accountable than the person who helped build the company.
David brings a unique perspective to the conversation as well. As a big investor, he can speak to his VC perspective of having multiple founding partners in startups. VCs often see companies with complementary co-founders as less risky and more likely to succeed. We would also like to hear about his role as a VC helping promising entrepreneurs find co-founders.
We hope you can join us for this event on March 1st. That is wonderful. I’m looking for an audience member to help me ask some questions through his Q&A feature on Hopin.
