Tech Entrepreneurs Get a Hand Pairing Up (opens in new tab)

We just got access to Founder Dating in Las Vegas. It's a great resource. I enjoy not getting pitched by biz people looking for developers, but instead have meaningful conversations about starting up businesses.

And long walks on the beach.

I was a bit confused as to what Founder Dating was. It's not actually a single "meet up," but rather an online community.

We opened up Founder Dating for SLC in just a few hours. I love the program, and those behind it seem super sharp. The reasons I'm a fan:

1. 50/50 tech/biz. Everyone knows the ratios are usually not this way, but something awesome happens when tech founders aren't outrageously outnumbered.

2. Exclusivity. This might not be the right word, but having some control over who is in is very valuable.

Founder Dating consistently does a great job in keeping the quality up as they open in each city. Agreed that the exclusivity aspect of it is one of the most valuable aspects.

Linking to content behind a pay wall is really annoying...

Always impressed with the people I meet who are involved with FD.

I did it a couple years back and had a terrific experience.
