If there’s one thing that sounds more awkward than going on a blind date hoping to find your ideal romantic partner, it’s got to be going on a blind date hoping to find your ideal business partner.
But that’s exactly what CoFoundersLab has done for cofounders across the world since its inception in 2011. The company has made 550,000 introductions in the years since, according to its website. And the D.C. branch of CoFoundersLab is gearing up to host a “Matchup” event at 1776 on 15th Street on Monday, Dec. 12.
“The event will include a short educational presentation on what to look for when searching for your cofounder, 30-second pitches to help facilitate matching cofounders and a general networking session aimed specifically at founders and aspiring founders,” organizers promise.
Tickets to the evening event cost $10 — find more information, and RSVP, here.
