Comment on Ask HN: Who are the most successful non-technical founders of tech companies?

Comments

Reddit's founder Alexis Ohanian was not technical at all, he just took care of PR/marketing.

Incidentally I graduated from the same high school as Dennis Crowley, from what I've gathered he was pseudo technical - he had the domain knowledge and had built products but hired others to build those particular products you named.

I also think some of the most successful iphone app companies are founded by non-technical people who outsource their software development.
