Your Profile
Your Foundance profile is how potential co-founders, investors, freelancers and other fellow start-up enthusiasts will find you. A good and complete profile is your business card and ticket to success.
You can always view and update your profile by clicking on your avatar, bottom-left corner.
Profile Completeness
Each detail we ask for is a piece of a puzzle. The more complete the puzzle, the more likely it is that people will want to interact with you, share their ideas, or work on yours.
Here's how each element contributes to your profile's completeness:
This is how a complete profile looks like:
Profiles with a completion rate lower than 40% won't be displayed on the Community page, for the others to see.
Your support for the Foundance community
Our aim is to build a strong start-up community. Hence, one of the important pieces of the puzzle is how you want to support the Foundance community. While you can select more than one of the options listed below, we strongly advise you to pick just the ones that match your current intentions. No worries, you can always edit this section later.
- Founder - You want to create projects
- Co-Founder - You want to join someone's project
- Freelancer - You want to work on discrete pieces of work across many projects
- Advisor - You want to give a little time and a lot of experience to projects
- Hacker - You want to help buiding hackathon projects
Depending on this selection, your Foundance experience will be customized. For example, people who want to support he community as founders or co-founders will have a slightly different experience from people who only want to act as freelancers.
Your Journey
Every person has a story. What is yours?
Let the other community members learn how you got here. It might be a corporate 9-5 job, a prize you won while a student, a successful start-up started in your parent's garage.
We created this timeline for you to showcase your journey.
Click on Add Experience
and select the type of experience you want to add. You can select anything from the good-old professional and educational, to exits, accelerators, previous funding and hackathon prizes. If none suits, you can select the "other" option.
