Following this videos that i watch i tough it will be helpful if i write a blog post on the factors to consider when choosing a perfect co-founder for your startup.This factors are PASSION and COMPLEMENTARY SKILL SET.

PASSION
Passion Passion and Passion i repeat three times, your co-founder must have passion for the startup idea you are working on and also you too must have the passion for idea you are working, because this is the only factor that keeps you going during the trying times, and am very sure you will not like your co-founder to leave during this trying time due to lack of passion on his part.

Nice one, I am currently facing a similar experience as regards d finding a passionate non technical co-founder(d guy just doesn’t seem passionate n enthusiastic about d project even though I’m willing to drop all d code n all d money).
I think it’s harder nowadays to find a non-technical co-founder than to find a technical one.:confounded:
