It's sounds like you've done a bit of homework, as would be expected of someone with your background. However, when selecting a partner, make sure you spend a great deal of time getting to know them. I can't stress that enough.

Also, I'd encourage you to solicit people that have similar interests (possibly expertise in something you wished you knew more about & enjoy), which can potentially turn into your product/business. If you want to spend a significant portion of your life working on something, it might as well be something you enjoy (cause you can grind out a living doing things you don't care about for anyone). When recruiting engineers, let them know what spaces / ideas you are considering. From my experience, passion for a space gets more responses then delineated qualifications.

Best of luck.
