47. Jack Thompson on empowering young entrepreneurs

Jack Thompson is an 18 year old senior in high school at Toledo School for the Arts and President of StartHuddle, a nonprofit organization that seeks to empower and promote young entrepreneurs in the Greater Toledo region. In this episode we speak with Jack about his experience building businesses as a student and how we can encourage more young entrepreneurs.

Jack has been involved in Toledo's startup scene since he was a child. He and his family started CoderDojo Toledo, a local branch of an international nonprofit that helps kids ages 7-17 learn how to code. In the fall, Jack will be studying computer science at an undecided university and plans to build StartHuddle throughout his undergraduate experience.
