Back to all events Startups Start Here: Laying the Right Co-Founder Foundation for Success Host: NYU Entrepreneurial Institute
Event Details

​What you'll learn:

A business is really nothing more than a collection of human beings working together to achieve some set of common goals based on a set of core values. And, Co-Founders and a Co-Founding relationship are what creates the connective tissue that weaves it all together. In this session, Carly will help bring the intentionality and tactics needed to sustain a long term, successful co-founding relationship.
