Find out how to find a co-founder on TechCrunch Live

Successful startups need a strong founding team of like-minded people. But how do you find and hire other people to help you create, sell, and manage your product? Tanis Jorge and David Blumberg talk about the importance of co-founders at a very special time TechCrunch Live event, March 1 at 11:30 a.m. PST / 2:30 p.m. EST.

They know this subject well. Tanis Jorge co-founded Trulioo and now runs The Cofounder’s Hub, a service dedicated to helping founders identify their needs and find a co-founder who works best in that situation. David Blumberg of Blumberg Capital was an early investor in Trulioo and has invested money at every turn, including Trulioo’s $394 million Series D.

I’m thrilled to moderate this conversation on internal partnerships. The importance of the co-founder is often underestimated. A good co-founder should offer complementary skills – maybe you’re good at coding but need help with business management. Or maybe a good co-founder is someone who can help manage the emotional baggage that comes with starting a business. And there’s no better responsible partner than someone who helped found the company.

David also brings a unique perspective to the conversation. As a prolific investor, he can speak from the VC perspective of having multiple founding partners in a startup. Venture capitalists often view companies with complementary co-founders as less risky and more likely to succeed. I also want to ask him about his role as a VC in helping promising entrepreneurs find a co-founder.

I hope you can join this event on March 1st. It’ll be awesome, and I’m counting on the audience to help ask some of the questions via Hopin’s Q&A feature.
