Ask HN: Any good opportunities to meet potential co-founders in the Bay Area?
I'm an engineer at a startup that's been itching for a long time to start a company. I know it's definitely ideal to source cofounders from one's colleagues, but most of my experience is at small startups so I don't have the connections of a large company or a huge personal network.
Any ideas for ways I can put myself in a better position to meet potential co-founders? I live in San Francisco but curious to hear about networking in other areas as well.
My interests: - Healthcare (EHRs, patient services, labs, insurance) - Education (learning management systems, academic publishing, intellectual property) - Social welfare - Messaging/communication
The only way to attract co-founders in SF is to create value. An idea and a Resume alone have no value. Build something and showcase it. You'll create real opportunities and you'll become a magnet.
You might get more targeted advice if you share your skills and interests.
Thanks for the feedback!
