About YoungPreneur
Real-World Experience. Real Confidence. Real Impact.
At YoungPreneur
We believe the most powerful classroom is the real world. Our mission is to empower students aged 12–18 to discover their entrepreneurial potential through immersive, hands-on experiences that teach them how to think critically, act confidently, and lead purposefully.
We don’t just teach business concepts — we bring them to life. Through our unique blend of workshops, real selling opportunities, and investor-style pitch experiences, YoungPreneurs learn what it takes to create, build, and sustain a business from the ground up.
Our Story
Founded by Ilia Feldman, a financial industry leader with a proven track record of building new business channels and driving innovation for several major financial institutions, YoungPreneur was born out of a vision to prepare the next generation for real success.
After years of mentoring professionals and leading strategic initiatives, Ilia recognized a gap — students were learning theory but not how to apply it. YoungPreneur bridges that gap by combining business education with real-world practice, transforming traditional learning into a dynamic, practical, and confidence-building journey.
Our Mission
To ignite entrepreneurial thinking and leadership in youth through real-world business experiences that inspire confidence, creativity, and lifelong skills.
Our Vision
To build a generation of innovators, problem-solvers, and leaders who are ready to make an impact in their communities and beyond.

Why YoungPreneur Works
Unlike traditional programs, YoungPreneur combines education, entrepreneurship, and experience.
Students learn it, build it, and sell it — gaining essential life and career skills along the way.
Our programs — YoungPreneur Market, YoungPreneur Den, and YoungPreneur Camp — create a growth pathway where each experience builds on the last, leading students from their first idea to real-world execution and confident public presentation.
