The Inaugural Forbes 30 Under 30 Locals List

Our inaugural 30 Under 30 Local List features the top entrepreneurs, activists and creatives in the vibrant innovation hubs of Atlanta, Austin, Boston, Chicago, Cleveland, Los Angeles, Miami, Puerto Rico, Seattle and Toronto.

These 371 total innovators have collectively raised more than $1.4 billion in funding. Some 41% self-identify as people of color, 38% are women and 24% are immigrants. Meet the 30 Under 30 Local Class of 2023.
