You’ve probably heard Venture Capitalists say over and over again, the team is everything… well because it is. The first 10 individuals that you bring onboard, including your cofounder, will make or break your company. The purpose of this course is to provide a roadmap and checklist of the do’s and don’ts when recruiting your cofounder, advisors, and first employees. In this comprehensive program, you will learn what it actually takes to build and structure a team properly.
