WHO WE ARE
BREAKING DOWN BARRIERS FOR YOUNG FOUNDERS
Youth Forge is breaking age restrictions in innovation through market research, uncovering the hidden challenges faced by young entrepreneurs under the age of 18. Barriers that have been long invisible to business policy makers, a problem cited by Global Entrepreneurship Monitor, reinforcing traditional innovation systems.

A LARGE MAJORITY OF TEENS DREAM OF ENTREPRENEURSHIP
But very few realize this dream early due to systemic barriers. We exist to change that reality by providing data-driven advocacy and creating pathways for young founders.
We focus specifically on founders under 18, often overlooked by other research entities, involving young researchers and experts collaborating to challenge the status quo.
