Ask HN: How a non-tech can start a tech startup
I recently learned that Alibaba.com founder Jack Ma couldn't code a single line yet he managed to started a billion dollar web empire. I'm also quite sure there are many other highly successful tech entrepreneurs who knew nothing about technology. How did they do it?<p>I just finished my business degree and want to get into tech start-ups. Though I know some programming basics and can read codes, I don't have the technical skills to make my idea a reality. Yes I could spend the next 12-24 months to learn coding but we know in the start-up world it's all about speed to market. On the other hand finding a good technical co-founder requires a heck of a lot of luck!<p>So what are some of my options? I'm particularly interested to hear from people with similar background and broke into the tech startup world.<p>Cheers!
