Forbes announced today The 2018 Edition of the Forbes 30 Under 30, an encyclopedia of rising stars across the globe and perhaps the largest honor a young founder can receive. There’s a lot of synergy between the Rough Draft and Forbes 30 Under 30 platforms— both serve to support and level up the talented young people doing impactful work around us.
