Behind every successful startup is a strong partnership built on trust, shared values, and a common vision. While many may decide to go on the startup journey alone, solo founders take longer to scale than a founding team of two.
However, 65% of startups fail due to co-founder conflict, suggesting that getting the wrong co-founder or not having a great relationship with your co-founder could harm your startup.
In the first Pitch Friday of the year, Celestine Omin, CEO & CTO at Klump, and Omoruyi Edoigiawerie, Lead Partner, Edoigiawerie & Company LP, will be diving into the intricacies of co-founder relationships and offering actionable insights on how to build successful and long-lasting relationships with co-founders.
