Well, when I moved to another country (UK) I felt super lost. Who were the founders living here? What do they do?
I ended up going to a Google coworking space over there and met some really cool people.
Now, I'm back to my home country, after 8 years abroad, and again, I don't know how are the founders living close to me that I could potentially meet.
That's why I decided to build FoundersAround.com
There are already 46 founders on the map.
I feel that PH founders can make this map explode with markers and motivate people to meet in real life.
Really like the concept of connecting founders in a focused and supportive space. Is there any matching system based on industry or startup stage to make the networking even more meaningful?

Hey Leo! It’s super cool. Knowing where builders are located shows political and economic strategies behind. I’m really impressed by that data! Wish you all the best

@rahimwws thank you!
@leonagano Cool project. By the way, are you referring to Google Campus? I used to love working there!
FoundersAround
@martin_rue yes! Bonhill St if I’m not wrong
It was a cool place
@leonagano It was! It was so cool to be able to drop into a place and know you'd be working around tons of other people chasing the same dreams.

@leonagano, this is really great information. Appreciate your time to build great networks of founders.

So cool! Whenever I plan any trip, I can connect with founders and have a meetup with them! :) Thank you for this! :)
FoundersAround
@busmark_w_nika Yes, let's bring more founders onboard and make this map crowded

@leonagano How did you onboard those people before? Or are they solely from Product Hunt?
FoundersAround
@busmark_w_nika I manually outreached them.

I’m not sure if this is by design or a bug. If it’s by design, I’m really shocked

@shahriardgm to make this matching system, I need to have more founders I believe. Hopefully we will get there
Pretty cool idea! Damn, I'm one of the only founders from Toronto :(
