Join us for a two-part Nestworking event designed to help early-stage entrepreneurs, particularly those in deep tech, understand what makes a successful co-founding team and how to build one intentionally.
Part 1 — Interactive Session (90 mins):
Led by Ellie Turner-Coughlin, this session explores the dynamics of co-founding, what defines a successful team, who your right co-founder is, and how to maintain strong, trust-based relationships with your co-founding team and early members. You’ll walk away with practical insights to assess compatibility and navigate the partnership intentionally and sustainably.
Part 2 — Nestworking Mixer (90 mins):
Right after the session, join us for pizza, drinks, and open networking. This is your chance to put new insights into action, connect with potential co-founders, and begin shaping future collaborations.
Whether you’re a researcher with an idea, a founder searching for a partner, or an entrepreneur curious about building lasting startup teams, this session will help you form the foundations of meaningful, high-performing partnerships.
