Need advice on tech start up/building the right team

[Joel Schuster]

Hi there, I recently joined the Fastlane Forum after checking some threads, in hopes of getting advice on developing an idea. I've been thinking about this business idea for a while, but I couldn't implement it as I'm seeking for logistical and entrepreneurial support first.

This is what I've been thinking about:

First, my objective is to find a developer/dev team to start with the concept. The main goal of the project is to expand 3D printing and 3D design to any user who has access to a computer or tablet in an amusing and unique way. Another goal is to create a brand and lead in the emerging 3D printing market through a great software product.

I lack the technical and development skills to successfully launch something like this anytime soon, however I have a draft of the business model. Due to the upcoming rise of 3D printing by order, I believe the idea has great potential to affiliate with other related industry sectors. I've thought that I need to search for a dedicated and honest team, and also for other contacts that are vital to run the business flawlessly.

That's just a simple vision of the idea. It would all begin with the software, which I think has to provide a game-like experience to reach most audiences. Nothing is as important as the customer's experience and entertaiment. Then, it's about making the right connections to successfully monetize it.

I was looking for any advice or contribution, as I feel like not having enough expertise or contacts to succeed on this. I would appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks in advance!
