What type of co-founder - must have?

Question

What about business founder? Technical founder?
Hi hunters, I am Nadia. When I talk to other people they often ask me, if I am a tech founder or if I have a business co-founder (spoiler: I do).
Do you think it is crucial to have a technical co-founder in your core team? What about business co-founder?

So I am really a cross between the two, but I am more of a business founder.

As a founder you kind of have to do both.

In my case, I have seen more technical founders that built products but can not get users or generate profit. But that's my experience.

I know that revenue is the blood line of startups, and I really try to work on things that is focused on the business side of things.

My perfect formula is 3 co-founders to build a loop of collecting user insights > designing experience > developing > getting feedback and again

So we have sales+marketing, tech and UX founders. Works well so far
