Gen Z Founders Reveal The Toughest Challenges They Face As Young Entrepreneurs | Forbes

War. Inflation. Market crashes. Layoffs. In a terrible, topsy-turvy year, one thing remains constant: Tomorrow’s brightest young leaders are turning to entrepreneurship to solve the world’s biggest problems—on their own terms. The 600 bold founders, leaders and entrepreneurs on the 2023 Forbes 30 Under 30 list have launched creative companies to put a dent in issues like global warming, reproductive health, student debt and financial freedom.

Take 27-year-old Dina Radenkovic, who is redefining female reproductive health with her startup, Gameto. So far, the 2023 Healthcare lister has raised $40 million to make egg harvesting cheaper and safer by using human stem cells to mature ova in a lab. Or Social Impact lister Noah McQueen, 26, whose company Heirloom has raised $53 million to fight global warming, signing carbon offset deals with tech giants Microsoft, Stripe and Shopify.
