sounds like a soft pitch to me :) @geordant sounds like a winner.. are you looking for Co-Founders?

I attended the Meet & Greet this week. Was fantastic! One thing Carlos said that was quite pertinent was essentially you guys are looking for teams with a 'technical' co-founder. It is possible but difficult to gain investment without this. I have actually seen this in a number of places.

So my question is how does one define 'Technical' ... Obviously if you are designing a Medical App this means somebody who knows about Medicine but if you developing say something to disrupt Social Media how can one be defined as technical in that space?

or are we simply looking for a Senior Dev within the Co-Founding team. The person who is going to be writing the code?

I attended the Meet and greet this week and a question like this cropped up.

I think what was said was, the hackathons that they run are a good place to meet co-founders.. It seemed that by the time you get to seedcamp your team and product should be robust enough to be put through the paces.. that's just my interpretation of what was said on Tuesday - i'll let the experts pip in with the 'official reply'
