Found mine via LinkedIn!

Matt El Mouktafi · Answer

Met my cofounder on LinkedIn 🙂 I just started sharing content about my work, made networking call … and we met like that.

I wasn’t looking for one to begin with, I started alone which allowed me to choose a co founder I really wanted to work with and not someone by default

For me, the best way to find a co-founder was through mutual connections. Friends and acquaintances often know someone who might be a good fit.

@lara_bishop That's true! However, we often connect with people who are similar to us (like university friends). This makes it less likely to find someone with a complementary profile, as they might have similar skills, ways of thinking, and opinions as us.
