Rahim Fazal

I met Rahim in New York in late June of this year. I actually found him through his profile on LinkedIn.com. If all goes as planned, he will be one of the featured speakers on the Extreme Entrepreneur Tour. He is extremely humble despite the fact that he sold a business for $1.5 million in high school and is getting his MBA at one of the best programs in the world without an undergrad degree. We have very similar philosophies about success and are both passionate about making a difference. It has been and will be a pleasure working with him. Below is his bio:

Rahim Fazal’s life planning program, “Gettin’ It”, provides alternately hilarious and sobering education to youths on how to truly get what they want out of life. A young “dot-com millionaire” who started and sold his first business while completing his last year of high school, Rahim has always urged young people to use business principles to map out a fulfilling life path. This mission culminated, after several business adventures, in Rahim’s recruitment by Canada’s top MBA program at the Richard Ivey School of Business to act as a student leader in their new entrepreneurial stream. An engaging and popular speaker at youth business conferences and advisor to entrepreneurial groups in Canada and the US -- and still only 23 years old -- Rahim continually urges youth to apply the business planning process to relieve the anxieties they suffer when facing uncertain futures.
