For early-stage founders, attending TechCrunch Disrupt takes time and budget. The value depends on what you do before, during, and after the event. Our CodeVentures article covers conversations that matter to your startup. Read: hubs.la/Q04B5_N60 #CodeVentures #TechCrunchDisrupt #StartupFounders #StartupGrowth

Waiting for the "perfect" technical co-founder can cost you months, and a lot of equity. Plenty of non-technical founders are moving faster with a technical partner who handles the planning, the build, and the security, and translates it all into plain English. We wrote a guide on how to tell if you need one and how to choose well: hubs.la/Q04zpWKR0 Follow @code_ventures for more startup insights like this.

Only if there were a way to build your product before quitting your job
Quit your job. Chase your passions. Take the risk. It's how I went from making $11,000 a month to $1,300

Mid-career professionals make the most successful founders again. They would need different help than typical 20 year old founders
The age of the 40-year-old founder is back. Bryant Chou spent 12 years as CTO of Webflow, which now powers something like 1.5% of the entire internet. He's back in the current YC batch with Ploy, an AI marketing platform, and he describes himself as "a bit of a boomer, double the age of the YC founders." But over 13% of his batch is already using his product, within months of launch. There is a side of the argument which destroyed one of the main edges young founders have, which was being faster and cheaper at building.... speed is everyones game. If what's left is knowing what to build this is more likely to come from spending 15 years watching an industry up close, collecting the thousand small frustrations that tell you where the real problem is. Bryant can build an anti-slop website tool because he spent over a decade learning exactly why websites are slop. So I'm updating. I don't think it's young vs. old. I think AI rewards whoever has the most domain knowledge to point it at, and only sometimes is this younger founders who are thinking outside of the box...

Mom, How did we get this rich? Your dad founded a tech startup with @code_ventures while others sought random developers as tech founders.
