Does ARMoR’s launch with three cofounders represent a potential evolution in CE’s thinking about the optimal number of co-founders, or does it reflect something else, such as the needs of this specific incubation idea or the dynamics of this cohort (e.g., an odd number of co-founders in the round)?
Hello, member of the incubation program team here! There has been no change in our thinking on the optimal number of co-founders. This is a rare scenario where 3 makes sense :) The reasons it made sense in this case are idiosyncratic to the individuals involved and their career plans, so I won’t speak to that here, but I’m sure they’d be happy to explain the context 1:1 if you’re interested!
I’m excited to see these launches!

Hi! I am the “third” co-founder in this scenario. Happy to DM about why this particular choice was made and why it made sense for this team.
