《2022胡润英国U30创业领袖》
100 名在英国的年轻创业者入选首届胡润英国30 岁以下创业领袖榜
（2022年10月17日，伦敦）胡润研究院今日发布《2022胡润英国U30创业领袖》（Hurun UK Under 30s 2022），列出了100位在英国的30岁及以下最杰出的年轻创业者。
首份胡润英国U30中，既包括知名企业创始人，如健身服装品牌Gymshark的Ben Francis和在线活动平台Hopin的Johnny Boufarhat，也包括企业年销售额已超过100万英镑或已经获得大额融资的不太知名的年轻创业者。
时尚行业上榜创业者占比最高，其次是食品和饮料行业。
29位女性上榜。少数族裔背景的年轻创业者在榜单中也表现优异，反映出英国日益多元化的创业生态。
100位上榜创业者的平均年龄为28岁半。宗教应用程序Glorify的联合创始人Edward Beccle是其中最年轻的，年仅23岁。
胡润百富董事长兼首席调研官胡润表示：“胡润英国U30目的是寻找英国最成功的年轻创业者，他们最有可能在未来创建数十亿美元规模的本土企业。希望这份榜单能激励下一代雄心勃勃的年轻创业者。”
“胡润英国U30的企业平均估值为1亿英镑，这对这些年轻创业者来说非常了不起。虽然这一平均值主要归功于Hopin、Gymshark和Marshmallow等公司，但估值超过1亿英镑的公司可能有十多家。如果他们在30岁的时候就能建立起这么大的企业，想象一下，当他们到了杰夫·贝佐斯、詹姆斯·戴森或沃伦·巴菲特的年纪时，他们会有多大的规模。你可以有把握地说，他们是未来最有可能成为十亿美金富豪的人，尤其是在创始人团队和投资机构日益懂得如何专注于价值创造而非销售的情况下。”
在胡润英国U30中，牛津大学的校友最多，其次是巴斯大学和华威大学。世界级大学对于成功的创业生态至关重要。
英国拥有世界上最好的创业生态之一，排在美国、中国和印度之后，排名第四，有46家独角兽企业（2000年以后成立的价值十亿美元以上的非上市公司）和30家瞪羚企业（2000年以后成立的价值5亿美元以上的非上市公司，且最有可能在三年内成为独角兽）。
胡润表示：“一个成功的创业生态需要榜样，既包括个人，如胡润富豪榜系列上的超级财富创造者，也包括企业，如胡润500强系列上的企业。如果一个城市或国家能够吸引世界上最成功的企业家和公司，那将产生连锁效应。企业家精神是有感染力的，有很多榜样的城市很可能会吸引最聪明、最优秀的年轻创业者。”
“投资机构的角色正在演变为指导和扩大机会，而不仅仅是提供资金。全球领先的风险投资机构正在用他们的投资组合构建生态系统，这对全球快速成长的初创企业具有巨大吸引力。拥有顶级风险投资机构的投资，将极大地增加初创企业的可信度。”
“胡润百富致力于通过有质量的榜单和调研，弘扬企业家精神。你看到的每一个成功的初创企业背后，都有成千上万的失败公司，以及新一代的未来独角兽公司。希望这份英国U30榜单能帮助年轻创业者为自己的企业找到榜样。”
Reiss和Kristian Edgerton兄弟创立了快速发展的女子健身服品牌AYBL。和女友Alice Cross一起，Reiss创立了Because of Alice。值得注意的是，Edgerton兄弟和Gymshark创始人Ben Francis和Lewis Morgan是校友，这使伍斯特郡的南布罗姆斯格罗夫中学成为胡润英国U30校友人数最多的学校。
Grace Beverley创立了健身服装品牌TALA，自2019年推出以来，该品牌的销售额已超过1000万英镑。
Natalie Glaze和Zanna van Dyke共同创立了由回收塑料制成的泳装品牌Stay Wild Swim。
Alexander和Oliver Kent-Braham是榜单上第一个成立独角兽——金融科技公司Marshmallow的英国黑人兄弟。
Harry Stebbings凭借“20分钟VC”播客成名，之后以自己的实力成为一名科技投资者。这位大学辍学生已经筹集了超过1亿英镑的资金来支持英国的初创企业。
内衣零售商Lounge Underwear的Dan和Melanie Marsden夫妇展示了社交媒体的巨大潜力，去年他们的销售额达到了5500万英镑。
Stephen Bartlett成为BBC真人秀节目《龙穴》中最年轻的企业家成员。22岁时，他与Dominic McGregor共同创办了Social Chain，营收增长至1.5亿英镑左右，之后与一家德国公司合并了数字媒体业务。Bartlett现在已经启动了他的私募股权公司Catena Capital。
13位上榜创业者从事时尚行业，11位从事食品和饮料行业，9位从事医疗健康行业，8位从事市场营销。
60位上榜创业者的企业位于伦敦，利兹、曼彻斯特、雷迪奇、索利哈尔也是热门地区。
牛津大学6名校友上榜，其次是巴斯大学和华威大学，分别有5名校友，卡迪夫大学、杜伦大学、埃克塞特大学、伦敦经济学院、曼彻斯特大学、诺丁汉特伦特大学和伦敦大学学院分别有3名校友上榜。
四对兄弟姐妹上榜——Edgerton兄弟、Kerr姐妹、Kent-Braham兄弟和Holmes-Darby兄弟。
宠物用品品牌Pets Purest的创始人Evie和Oliver Bristowe也入选了胡润英国U30。
这100位胡润英国U30创业领袖是胡润U30创业系列中的一部分。胡润U30创业系列包括来自10个国家的1000多名30岁以下创业领袖，其他来自中国、印度、美国、加拿大、德国、西班牙、韩国、阿联酋和澳大利亚。
