Founded in 2024 by Nadeem Barakat (<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/nadeem-barakat\/?originalSubdomain=eg\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">LinkedIn<\/a>), the platform teaches entrepreneurship and financial literacy to 10-16-year-olds through startup simulations and project-based learning.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Why it matters:<\/strong> The teen demographic is a sweet spot for edtech right now. Unlike early childhood education (which is crowded), the K-12 and higher ed markets (which are tightly regulated), the 10-16 age bracket outside of formal school settings is a critical gap where parents are willing to pay for soft skills like money management, leadership, and sales.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>\u201cWe are selling an investment, not charity,\u201d<\/strong> Barakat tells us, distinguishing the company from non-profit initiatives. \u201cPaid models drive higher commitment, and unlike free programs, our profit-driven model allows us to hire top talent and scale sustainably,\u201d he added. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The strategy:<\/strong> Scaling requires a pivot from service delivery to a \u201chybrid licensing model.\u201d While the company currently uses its own trainers to build brand equity, the long-term play is \u201ctrain-the-trainer\u201d licensing, said Barakat. He also wants to lean heavily into tech, saying, \u201cEighty percent of guidance will be automated via our platform \u2014 using AI tools for business plan reviews \u2014 allowing us to reserve high-touch mentoring for the top-tier 20% of projects.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The Saudi play:<\/strong> The edtech has already partnered up with 10 schools across Egypt and Saudi Arabia, but plans to push deeper into the Saudi market. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The big picture:<\/strong> The ultimate goal is vertical integration, with Barakat saying he\u2019s building a \u201cproduction line\u201d for the private sector. \u201cBusiness for Teens is the factory that produces the talent,\u201d he says. The roadmap includes a dedicated incubator for the top 5-7% of graduates who launch revenue-generating startups, alongside a recruitment arm to place talent at major corporations.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>What\u2019s next:<\/strong> The company is eyeing aggressive growth, targeting 30 school partnerships and 6k students by the end of the year, with three new program levels slated to launch in 1Q 2026.  <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>(** Tap or click the headline above to read this story with all of the links <\/strong>to our background as well as external sources.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Founder Nadeem Barakat tells us how the company plans to automate mentorship and why the Saudi market is the smart money play<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":682247,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"newspack_ads_suppress_ads":false,"newspack_popups_has_disabled_popups":false,"newspack_sponsor_sponsorship_scope":"","newspack_sponsor_native_byline_display":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_native_category_display":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_underwriter_style":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_underwriter_placement":"inherit","ep_exclude_from_search":false,"_primary_brand":0,"newspack_featured_image_position":"","newspack_post_subtitle":"","newspack_article_summary_title":"Overview:","newspack_article_summary":"","newspack_hide_updated_date":false,"newspack_show_updated_date":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[8378],"tags":[73,72,123],"brand":[],"newspack_spnsrs_tax":[],"class_list":["post-682246","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-startups","tag-education","tag-enterpriseam","tag-startups","wpautop","entry"],"acf":{"mongo_id":"4862b515-41b6-42a2-b765-ac9b2d872732","order":"7","is_powered_by":false,"story_type":"1","photo_url":"https:\/\/ent.news\/2026\/1\/148.jpg","photo_position":"above","homepage_title":"","full_issue_title":"Business for Teens raises six-figure pre-seed to fuel expansion","related_issue":[682236],"teaser":"Founder Nadeem Barakat tells us how the company plans to automate mentorship and why the Saudi market is the smart money play"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.1 (Yoast SEO v27.1.1) -
