About
- Description
- Young Founders School (YFS) is a non-profit organization dedicated to empowering underprivileged high school students with the entrepreneurial skills, mentorship, and real-world experiences they need to thrive in today’s world. By combining hands-on workshops, intensive bootcamps, and ongoing guidance from seasoned industry experts, YFS bridges the gap between academic learning and practical business know-how. We aim to cultivate a diverse new generation of innovators, change-makers, and socially responsible leaders capable of shaping impactful solutions for their communities and beyond. YFS does this by providing courses and virtual internships. Our courses range from entrepreneurship bootcamps to practical work skills courses. Our virtual internship is a 4-8 week programme with companies where students answer real business problems and present that solution to the enterprise. Next year, we aim to reach 20,000 students from Hong Kong, Singapore, India, Indonesia, UAE, Sri Lanka and Nigeria. This makes us the largest programme of it's kind in our markets.
- Our mission is to strengthen the global finance industry by empowering women to achieve their professional potential at each career stage. We operate under a guiding principle that we call Vision 30/40. It is the goal for women to occupy 30% of senior investment roles and executive committee positions by 2040. Even with our efforts, and those of so many other organizations working towards gender equity, we still have quite a way to go for women to hold even close to the number of investment or executive roles in finance that men currently hold.
