This is the question I get asked more than any other: I'm grabbing coffee with a potential technical co-founder. What do I ask?" So I wrote down 100 of them: outcastventures.com/essays/1…

What if the best co-founder for you is someone outside your network? If that question hit home, Catalyst applications close TONIGHT at midnight. Been a longtime listener of Founder in Arms so was thrilled to sit down with @rajatsuri and talk about why we built @outcastvc and Catalyst around the contrarian idea...

Building a billion-dollar company takes 12 years. Are you choosing a co-founder who can go the distance?

The AI generation may build companies 10x larger than those before it.

The most overrated signal in venture? Where the founder went to school.

Most capital goes to all-male teams. The biggest exits don't.

Building a company is a learned skill. We analyzed 350 U.S. tech IPOs and $1B acquisitions over the past 20 years in our Billion-Dollar Founder Study.

The best co-founder probably isn’t someone you’ve worked with before.

1/ Introducing Catalyst - a program for top 1% builders to meet their co-founder. Co-founders and GPs @andychen and @heyamylin have spent their careers recruiting, building, and investing at the earliest stages.

3/ So we built Catalyst to change that. 💰️$500K investment 💻️60 founders (half technical, half non-technical) ☀️ 2 months 🤖 $1M cloud & compute credits ...all in-person in San Francisco. The founders work side by side and decide deliberately whether to start a company together.

Replying to @atchen @heyamylin
2/ One pattern kept showing up: who you build with is the most important decision a founder makes, and it's still left to chance. When we studied 350 billion-dollar U.S. tech exits, the data confirmed it. Founders who previously didn't work together built companies with 21% higher exits than those who had.
