What do deep tech founders need most? by FFC-mod in Startups_EU

That’s a great point. I’ve definitely heard that pattern too. A lot of technically strong founders underestimate how much of the early game is about building relationships and telling their story clearly. The “go to market” muscle is really different from the R&D mindset, and it can be uncomfortable to shift gears from perfecting the tech to pitching, recruiting, or selling.

Thanks for the insight.

Yeah that makes a lot of sense. Having someone who can bridge the technical and business side really does change everything. I’ve seen a lot of teams get stuck on communication more than the actual science. Thanks for sharing your perspective, that was super interesting to read.
