Succeeding with Co-Founders - Future Proof Me

This week’s mini episode explores what it takes to build a successful partnership with a co-founder. One thing we’ve noticed with numerous early stage startups is the challenge in those very early days of finding a co-founder, or co-founders, whom you can really work with for the long term, even when the pressure’s on. So often you hear of acrimonious founder breakups and it got us asking ourselves, how do you create a good working relationship over time if you have co-founders? One person who’s brilliantly navigated the co-founder challenge is serial Scottish entrepreneur Lesley Eccles, who with her 4 other co-founders built a blockbuster business called FanDuel. We spoke to Lesley on the podcast a year ago and she has some amazing stories and experiences if you haven’t heard that episode.  In this mini episode you’ll hear how Lesley and her co-founders made a success of working and pivoting together for more than ten years to create a business that has ultimately been valued over $11 billion. We also share some of our observations from the four years of producing this podcast and from years of observing and advising numerous startups first hand. As the saying goes: “it takes two to tango” and it typically takes two or more to build an epic business. So enjoy this mini episode on Succeeding with Co Founders. LinksLink to Lesley Eccles original episodeLink to Adina Jacobs orig episode  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
