On: Generation Z is unprecedentedly rich

[joenot443]

The oldest Gen Z are 27 in 2024, still very young but not exactly an unheard of age to be leading a company. Evan, Zuck, Bill, etc were considered pretty effective leaders at that point, but you’re right, their management style was certainly different from other CEOs.

It does beg the question though, where all the Gen Z founders? I earnestly cannot think of a single one. Anyone have a name that comes to mind?

You can probably find a large number that were gobbled up in FANG aquisitions

There are plenty of Gen Z/young Millenial (24-32) founders, VCs, and execs. We just deviate towards B2B SaaS now.

I don't want to name names but most of YC's best startups are B2B firms founded by people in the 24-32 age cohort.
