The Founder Blueprint: Getting It Right Together

Building a startup is like playing a tough co-op game. You need the right team, clear rules, and full commitment; otherwise, things fall apart quickly.

In this talk, we’ll share how to align with your co-founders from day one, split the equity, avoid dead equity, and make sure everyone is in it for the long run. We’ll also show how our new tech tool, the Blueprint, helps founders lay a strong foundation, before the real challenges begin. If you want your startup to level up, start with your team.
