​Do I need a co-founder? And if I do, how do I choose the right one, avoid painful breakups, and protect myself in the process?

​At our next KANGARU meetup, we’re diving into the messy, real, and essential topic of co-founder relationships: from smart selection to how to have tough conversations.

​Whether you’re already building, looking for a partner, or wondering if you need one at all, this event is for you.

​📋 What’s on the agenda?

​We’ll hear honest insights from five incredible speakers who’ve lived through the highs (and lows) of co-founder dynamics:

​• Max Kraynov (Founder@ IQaaS, ex-CEO Aviasales, Funcorp): Reduce the risk of a co-founder breakup and create long-term alignment

​• Anton Genkin (Co-founder & CPO @ ViaPay, ex-Atlassian): Finding the right co-founder: psychology, fit and foundations that last

​• Malika Nikolaeva (Founder and CEO @ Frienda): Build a business with your spouse … and stay happily married

​• Yury Galustov (Founder & CEO @ Hydrosight): Do you even need a co-founder? And what if you don’t?

​• Anastasia Ramazanova (Co-founder @ Schooly): Lessons learned from co-founder mistakes

​• Ilia Moshin (Founder & CEO @ Rusprofile): Before you start as co-founders

​💡Why join?

​This is not just a panel – it’s a space to learn, reflect, and connect with other founders, builders, and curious minds. You’ll walk away with stories, tools, and maybe even a future co-founder.

​👥 Who this is for:

​Founders, to-be founders, tech professionals, product people, and anyone building or thinking about creating something of their own.

​🔥 Bring a friend or two.
