Meet Two Teenage Leaders Who Will Restore Your Faith in Humanity (We Aren't Kidding)!

Today's show features a conversation recording at Web Summit with two future (and present) leaders : Raya Mardani and Aarav Sharma. They are 15 and 16 respectively and already building incredible solutions with a real mission and purpose.

They joined me on stage for a talk called "Young Minds, Bright Futures" and it was too good not to follow up and record with them both whilst here.

As Web Summit themselves put it, "Gen Z hold immense potential to solve some of the world's most pressing challenges". Listening to these two leaders, it's impossible to disagree.
