i'm curious if there are any good examples of cofounders who worked well together and met through one of the third party founder dating approaches? or do most founders meet each other serendipitously (e.g. randomly at a coffee shop, some common interest group at school, dorm roommates, etc)?
The two founders of Kayak (Steve Hafner & Paul English) agreed to be 50/50 partners and write checks for $1M each within an hour of meeting through a VC intro. Hafner likened it to speed dating in an interview.
Not exactly the same, but a pretty awesome example of two founders working well together with no prior relationship.
