I would also suggest not to look for a cofounder, per se. Try to get a working MVP and get some progress yourself. Even if you are a pure software guy, you are easily able to learn the 1x1 of business development as biz dev is nothing more than 0 and 1. :) I mean, the rules are the same for code & business. There are some variables, some loops, some functions, that is it.

I would not specifically search for a cofounder, but search for the right people who can help you to push the product, even without getting 30% of your company. people who like to talk about idea, help you with daily problem startup problems,...

within a very short time, you will learn much about people, how they act and you will soon find one or more people who are really interested in pushing you project forward.

just because i am curious - is the tool planned for the european or us market?

Both that standards organization I'm within/from is based in the EU, but is strongly catching on within the US. Several companies have adopted within just a year.

I'm based in the US, but there will be an EU market.
