Starteryou The Leadership Series EP4
We’re excited to welcome Victor Zhang, CEO of Hend and one of the most dynamic young leaders you’ll meet, for the next session of The Leadership Series!
Victor is a rising senior from Vancouver who’s already founded two ventures, interned at a Y Combinator startup, and spoken on three TEDx stages, all while competing as a nationally ranked debater and championship rugby athlete. As the founder of Hend, an edtech platform making studying fun through gamification, Victor is on a mission to change how students learn.
In this session, Victor will share his journey of building a startup as a high school student, what it’s like to pitch VCs (and get rejected), how competitive debating sharpened his entrepreneurial edge, and why students shouldn’t wait until graduation to start building.
If you’re a student curious about startups, edtech, competitive debate, or just how to do a lot at a young age without burning out, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.
