I have two, resulting from two fantastic meetings yesterday!

  1. Finally connected with an awesome female entrepreneur who, like me, is interested in furthering sex positivity and making sex tech safer and less sleazy, and had an excellent discussion about how it takes not just better products or increasing cultural awareness, but both. While our product ideas may not be a co-founder fit, they could easily lead to a product partnership.
  2. Met a founder who not only wants to explore bringing me into the fold on a product (unlike the first, "safe for work") which aligns with one of my own product visions, but is referring me to non-technical founder friends to explore helping with their products, AND is connecting me with people in the podcast space because he heard from our mutual contact about my idea of using the medium for the cultural awareness aspect of point 1. I'm joining his founders' group Zoom for another meeting tonight, so more opportunities, at the very least, to exchange ideas and network.
