Founder Friday by Canopy Community

May and Camilla of Beta100.co

Canopy Community Season 4 Episode 2

BETA100™ is a project-based network of talent that startups can use to build up their teams and grow their businesses.  The platform challenges you to change your mindset and test-drive your relationships before committing to a fixed role.

Contributions to projects are remunerated through equity, pay or a mixture of both.

In this edition of Founder Friday the co-founders of Beta 100 share their experience of building, as non technical founders, a tech product to help other founders.

They reflect on their experiences of the journey to become co-founders & the commitment it takes as well as the faith in each other, to get a startup of the ground.

Beta100.co is at the stage of proving product market fit, and raising their seed round.

Based in Cornwall, Beta100 and has been formed as part of the Falmouth University Launchpad program.
