Founders

Q: Does one need to know or learn coding to start a tech company?

A recovering founder. Currently building something new. 2x exits @$500M+ (mostly got lucky)

Might be a bit of a hot take, but I'd say: YES ABSOLUTELY

If you're great at coding, you can build an MVP yourself 
If you're OK at coding, it still helps you communicate with real engineers 
At a minimum, you can learn Figma mockups, Framer, Bubble, or Flutterflow

I wouldn't call myself a coder, but one of the best classes I took was object oriented programming - helped me understand how engineers think and design, and kept me from saying so much stupid BS
