About
Young Founders is being operated by Ed Hardy & Kit Logan, both eighteen. Having founded their own startup aged 16, they have actively participated in the UK’s startup scene whilst maintaining their commitment to their studies and have seen first hand how a programme like this will benefit the cohort. The ‘curriculum’ is influenced by many of their experiences, successes and failures alike, over the last three years. Young Founders was born out of the problem of high tuition fees as it means students increasingly care about two metrics - the percentage who are employed after six months and what they're going to be earning. Young Founders are advocates of studying for a university degree but not advocates of the careers that don’t reflect the skills and potential of graduates. Students often choose traditional routes that represent little risk and, for the tech sector at least, represent a significant under utilization of human capital.
