ABOUT US

GTA:YE is a global community, promoting the visibility of young entrepreneurs and innovators through a members’ directory and providing a platform for learning, growth and collaboration through micro-learning resources and regular podcasts.

By promoting diversity and inclusion through a representative advisory board and membership, we aim to provide authentic insights to the wider Tech sector, in order to elevate the visibility of a fully representative and diverse network of young entrepreneurs & innovators to investors and companies.
