Student Solopreneurs
Student solopreneurs are high school students with unique ideas and the desire to operate a business, serving as its sole employee. Unlike traditional entrepreneurs who focus on scaling and building teams, student solopreneurs manage all core operations on their own. They use tools and mentors to create ventures that are flexible, sustainable, and profitable.
