Hey everyone,
I'm looking for a partner to launch a SF in Germany. Any recommendations how/where I could best find a potential partner to team up with?

Hi Jan, I would advise not just finding a part for the sake of it, but assess in depth how that partnership can add value and what are the risks involved. I can share our experience in how we did this. Happy to chat further if you are curious.

We did some tests (MBTI, Human Design, DISC, among others) to assess our compatibility - caveat we do know each other for 20+ years, and despite having similar core personal values we have never worked together before so this was a key question. In the end, you should find someone you can trust, rely on, be yourself, have difficult conversations with. Also it is important that both of you understand priorities in each other's lives and personal moments and goals (e.g., it is more unlikely that someone with a family with kids in school is willing to move to a remote location vs. a single person). In the end of the day, a partner is someone you can discuss any t0pics openly, be it a major issue or not

Thanks ^redacted‌, ^redacted‌ are you looking specifically in Germany or through out Europe, the US and UK, or even further out? Depending on what you are looking for I know investors and opportunities that might fit.
