    What Percent Equity Would You Give A New Co - Founder…

    Hi, my name is Erika Jose and I'm the founder of the Female Founder Club. I'm also a former Entrepreneur-in-Residence at Startupbootcamp. I attended their e-commerce program in Amsterdam in 2019.

And today, it says: "What percentage of equity would you give a new co-founder when you (a software engineer) have far built the idea, MVP, the business plan, the pitch deck, and conducted beta testing?
