Future involvement in a company or a startup and the business arrangements will be discussed privately, or on the internal messaging system.

IDEA: Marco, amateur photographer, wants to create a new portfolio using innovative techniques and very complex scene details.
PRESENTATION: Marco creates a project on Geentoo and presents his idea as effectively as possible showing only the necessary details that make his idea brilliant. Relevant descriptions, photographs, drawings, will increase the ranking and view of his project within Geentoo.
TEAM SEARCH: Once the project is created, activate the search for collaborators. A model, a lighting technician or photography enthusiast, a makeup artist, an experienced set designer.
PARTICIPATION: Once the team has been created, everyone will be able to provide their own equipment, or will contribute to a common project fund. Everything already specified in the project presentation.
THE COMMON GOAL: Participate in a project that you feel is worthwhile, increase your personal portfolio to show to possible employers. To create a network of collaborators for future work. Or simply, for personal passion and pure fun!

TEAM SEARCH: Potential team members could include a translator, a layout artist, an illustrator and why not, an expert in self-publishing.
PARTICIPATION: Once the necessary figures have been identified, everyone will participate in their own way to make this charity project happen.
THE COMMON GOAL: The goal is obviously charity, but for some "early-career professionals" it might be useful to show volunteer activity and an example of their own work on a resume, and it could open the door to some future job opportunities.

THE COMMON GOAL: Simple recreation and to find the right people to share a great adventure with.
Frequently asked questions about finding a co-founder
Finding the right opportunities requires taking some risks, just like seeking investors for a startup. Regardless of Geentoo, when presenting a project, contacting a potential participant or investor, it is advisable to sign a confidentiality agreement (or NDA - non-disclosure agreement) drafted by your legal advisor. This can be useful to prevent issues arising from unauthorized disclosure of information, which might otherwise be difficult to protect against, and to obtain compensation for damages.
