I've got the opposite problem as a tech guy that likes to build stuff but I don't have the business/marketing skills needed. I've been pitched a few times, but I'm very picky about the opportunities I'd go after. I've listed myself on the HN contractor spreadsheet and on BuildItWith.me.

One thing you should do is put your email or contact info your HN profile. That will help a lot.

Wow, two hackers in one thread looking for a business guy?

I have 40+ business ideas - some well fleshed out and others just a couple lines from a notebook - but I have no one to execute them. Between school and work I haven't had time to translate my basic knowledge of data structures into something like rails and python. And to be honest, I don't enjoy building as much as I should to be able to code them on my own.

However I do have a BS with a focus on business and basically a minor in EECS.

I pretty much figured I was SOL at finding a tech co-founder.

If you're still interested, feel free to contact me via my email in my profile.
