Card image cap

In this engaging and personal talk, Federico encourages parents to believe in and support the entrepreneurial ideas of young people. Reflecting on conversations with his father and his own journey through multiple failed business attempts, he shares how learning by doing shaped his growth. His story is ultimately one of resilience and hope, showing that early failures can become the foundation for future success when young people are trusted to try. Federico is a Grade 10 student and entrepreneur, he is passionate about building technology products that improve how people live and learn. Since the age of thirteen, he has created multiple projects, including a digital marketing service, a fashion reselling brand, and two education apps, Paisero and Tovi, gaining experience in teamwork, iteration, and turning ideas into real-world products. Motivated by the gap between how people are taught and how they actually learn, he hopes to use technology to create more interactive, self-driven, and meaningful learning experiences that help young people develop confidence, purpose, and the skills to shape a better future. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
