Looking for a Co-Founder, Business, Growth & Partnerships | Sound Vista, Inc

Hi! I'm Adrian, founder & CEO of Sound Vista (soundvista.app) SV is an immersive social platform for media, culture, community, fandom, and creator economies.We’ve spent the last year building the foundation. Beta V1 is complete, Vista AI is in place and it's being improved every week. We have a CFO, design and engineering teams, advisors, a solid pitch deck, investors already following the company and interested in revisiting the opportunity once we have enough Beta usage and traction data to evaluate, and we’re close to having our first 100 users actively testing the product while we continue onboarding creators and shaping the next phase.We’re not trying to compete head-on with Instagram, TikTok, Spotify, X, or other existing platforms.We’re building a new type of user interface inspired by VR and spatial computing, a new layer that doesn’t really exist today by connecting pieces that are still fragmented across publishing, streaming, community, commerce, events, creator relationships, discovery, and audience participation.The product itself is spatial by design, with an immersive interface inspired by VR, spatial computing, and virtual environments. Instead of another endless feed, people move through Rooms, discover media in different formats, create Memories, Vistas (our own form of "Reels") follow creators, collect releases and perks, and participate in communities in a way that feels more intentional and immersive.For creators and brands, Sound Vista brings together the tools and relationships that are usually scattered across multiple products. They can build different Rooms around different parts of their world, publish media, engage their audience, create digital or physical Collectibles, set their own prices, add perks and access, connect events and experiences, and earn directly from the people who support them.At this stage, I’m looking for a co-founder who can complement me on the business and strategic side of the company.Ideally, this person has experience across some combination of:

• Venture capital, fundraising, or startup finance
• Creator economy and consumer technology
• Media, entertainment, music, and culture
• Strategic partnerships and business development
• PR, communications, brand, and go-to-market
• Building relationships with creators, brands, investors, and cultural organizations
• Strong product and design instincts, even if they are not a designer themselvesI’m especially interested in someone who understands both sides of what we’re building: the business mechanics of scaling a consumer platform and the cultural sensitivity required to build something creators and audiences actually want to be part of.This is not about finding someone to simply help with fundraising.I’m looking for a real partner who can help shape the company alongside me. Someone who can open doors, challenge strategy, build relationships, create opportunities, help us think through distribution and monetization, and help turn the strong foundation we already have into a company that can scale.My own background spans product design, creative direction, technology, and music. The broader Sound Vista team includes designers, engineers, artists, musicians, and creators with experience across companies including Spotify, Native Instruments, GQ, Nike, and startups across consumer technology, AI, apps, and media.We’re building toward an AI-native creation and participation platform where creators can build worlds around their work and audiences can become active participants, curators, collectors, and communities around those worlds.Someone based in Los Angeles is preferred because so much of what we’re building sits at the intersection of technology, entertainment, music, creators, brands, and real-world culture, but I’m open to the right person anywhere in the U.S.If this sounds like you, or someone immediately comes to mind, send me a message!Would love to meet people who believe the next generation of consumer platforms will be built at the intersection of technology, culture, creativity, community, and new immersive interfaces.
