Kiuas Inside is for anyone looking to either found a startup or join an early-stage startup as a co-founder. You can use it to:

• Find a co-founder for an idea that you're working on
• Connect with existing projects that are looking for co-founders
• Discover the most essential resources to help you found a startup.

You can submit a profile if you are:

• Currently interested to join others' projects as a co-founder
• Skilled in a field relevant for founding a startup (e.g. tech/business/design) with valid experience from those areas (work or personal projects)

You can submit a project if you are:

• Looking for a co-founder to join the project (or in special cases, a C-level employee for a small team)
• Working on a project that is scalable and realistic - and solving a real problem

Resources are basically links to external blogs, videos, podcasts, and newsletters that we've curated from various sources. We've included fundamental topics like idea validation, product development, team building

Sure, there's no way of preventing that. However, usually the most beneficial thing for founders is to actually talk about the idea to as many people as possible. You've maybe heard the phrase "ideas are cheap - what matters is the execution!"

Here and here are some good reads about the topic.

Throughout the years, we have been regularly approached by people looking for either co-founders for their own projects or early-stage projects to join as co-founders.

Being unable to effectively help these individuals led up to an idea of an online platform connecting three assets - projects, people, and resources.

During the summer of 2019, we decided on the final concept and built Kiuas Inside in-house, with the support of our awesome beta group consisting mainly of our alumni.
