Ben Horowitz ( Author of 'The hard thing about hard things') on the ideal founding team for a startup A great founding team needs two key players: the inventor and the entrepreneur. The inventor focuses on building a product thatโ€™s 10x better than anything else, while the entrepreneurโ€™s job is to bring it to the market and drive its success. Ben Horowitz and Marc Andreessen, co-founders of Opsware, perfectly balanced these roles. Ben, the entrepreneur, had a computer science background, which helped him understand invention and lead innovation. Marc, the inventor, had deep technical expertise but also understood markets and competition. Benโ€™s advice? Have two people who are skilled in both roles, or at least one person whoโ€™s world-class in each. Thatโ€™s the formula for a strong founding team. Balance invention and execution to build greatness! Follow for more startup insights from the best founders.
