Rich Martell

Young entrepreneur : Founder and CEO of Floxx

Rich started his first business at age 15. Far from being the ideal student, Rich was known as a rebel and risked being kicked out of both school and university.

After a wakeup call he went onto pass the computer science program he was studying at university and raised investment of $300,000 to fund his next project from a Facebook investor and a former Dragons' Den candidate at the age of 21.

Students will be inspired to start up their own businesses listening to Rich as he will share the highs and lows of running your own business. Rich is also able to mentor students on business ideas they may have.
