Learning notes from this episode:
- There is a difference between technology enabled businesses and deep tech businesses. Technology enabled businesses use tech to deliver a product or service cheaper or at scale, but their business is not selling the technology itself. Those businesses do not require a technical co-founder from the start.
- Having a technical advisor to help you in the early stages is a much lower barrier to entry than convincing a developer to leave their well-paid job at Google and join your startup.
- This is contrary to what most VCs say, but most VCs do not have experience in building companies or products. Non-technical founders, like those interviewed on this podcast, use this path because it is the cheapest, fastest and lowest risk.
