Zhan Beissikeyev
Developer & founder, 18 · Kazakhstan
I build products from problems I know firsthand.
Five years of competitive mental arithmetic made me a republican champion of Kazakhstan. Later it became MindZan, built in three weeks and sold to FOC for $10k. Now I scale it as CTO of FOC World.
