Three Teen Entrepreneurs To Watch Out For
#2 Tanay Tandon, 16
When Nick D’Aloisio sold Summly, a news summarization app, to Yahoo for a jaw dropping $30 million, Tanay Tandon comes under the spotlight. His invention Clipped, is a content summarization app. Although Clipped, provides a similar output as Summly, both use a different approach.
Tandon says, "Summly has taken a keyword based approach to summarization, while Clipped is more grammatical, Clipped algorithm analyzes how humans might actually read content based on subject-predicate-object-pattern-like sentences to draw summaries."
#3 Aron Beierschmitt, 22
Aron Beierschmitt started his venture, Foundation Games, when he was just 19. Beierschmitt raised $850,000 in funding from angel investors, including the founders of Treyarch, he currently employs 15 people and has offices in Philippines, San Francisco and Sydney. Beierschmitt and his team have already launched five iOS games and are working on three more.
Beierschmitt is all excited about the progress of Foundation Games; he says "Most of our titles have seen typically 500 to a million download with no real marketing." The release of Lumi, team’s second launch has seen over a million downloads and was featured as Apple’s app of the week.
