Direct Messages/Video: Chat or request a video call directly with people for interesting conversations.
Central Breakout Hangout: Take a break from 1-on-1s, hang in the common breakout room for general on-camera group conversations and chats.

WHAT FOLKS SAY: “Met my co-founder” ↔ “Met someone I eventually hired” ↔ “Met some of my best friends in the industry” ↔ “Met unpretentious people who genuinely love what they do” ↔ “It was amazing! Learned a lot from people, and everyone is super friendly!”

THINGS TO REMEMBER ABOUT COFOUNDERS & STARTUPS:You can add cofounders at many points in your startup's life-cycle. Expectation setting solves many ills - cofounder contributions (and equity/vesting, pay, etc.) can vary by founder, just lay it out in advance.
- Personality, culture, and fit matter - these are people you will be spending a lot of time with.
- Have an idea of the traits and skills you need in your ideal partner(s). Strong founding teams have complementary skill sets and tremendous amounts of trust.
- Your pitch (for your startup / idea / skills experience) is important. Practice until it's natural!
- Meet more people - attend events (like this one!). Don't give up. Keep trying. Sometimes you find a match quickly, sometimes, it takes a while.
