In 2022, Hurun Report held its first event themed around young entrepreneurial forces in the UK, and also released the Hurun UK Under30s list for the first time; in 2024, Hurun Report once again released the Under30S & Under35s list in the UK and held an award dinner.
By publishing the "Hurun U Series" in the UK, the aim is to find young entrepreneurial leaders in the UK and record their growth, inspire achievements, and witness brilliance through the list. A group of young entrepreneurs full of vitality and passion, carrying innovative dreams and extraordinary visions, gather on this stage full of infinite possibilities. They are not only the best in their respective fields but also the pioneers leading the trend of the times.

2024 the Hurun UK Under30s & Under35s Award Dinner & Chinese New Year of the Dragon
On February 6, 2024, the Hurun UK Under30s & Under35s Award Dinner & Chinese New Year of the Dragon were held at the Peninsula Hotel in London, UK. The dinner gathered nearly 220 guests from the British Under30s and Under35s , British unicorn CEOs, British local entrepreneurs, celebrities, business elites, Chinese entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs from China. Everyone gathered together to celebrate the arrival of the 2024 Chinese Lunar New Year. The first stop of the "Hurun U Series" in 2024 and the Hurun Global event officially kicked off in London, UK. This is also the second time Hurun Report has held the "Hurun UK Entrepreneurial Pioneers" award dinner in the UK!
Rupert Hoogewerf, Hurun Report Chairman and Chief Researcher, said:
“Our research shows Britain’s entrepreneurial spirit is alive and well. Many of these young business leaders have managed to quickly build successful companies despite a difficult geo-political environment, persistent inflation, and the many other headwinds our economies have experienced in recent years.”
“We believe each of our Under30s have quickly built businesses worth US$10m. The enterprises created by our more experienced Under35s group are each worth around US$50m. Some are worth a hundred times that. In time we expect many of our young Under30s to graduate to the more senior list as their ventures take flight.”
The "Hurun U Series" global event aims to discover and commend outstanding young people in various regions around the world who have achieved remarkable accomplishments in business, technology, culture, and social welfare. With a new look and positioning, and a more open attitude, it seeks to find the power of young entrepreneurs who change the world globally and help more young entrepreneurial leaders shine on the world stage.
2022 London, UK
Hurun UK Under 30s 2022 the Celebrating The UK’s Outstanding Young Entrepreneurs
On October 17, 2022, the Celebrating The UK’s Outstanding Young Entrepreneurs was held in London, bringing together British Under30s entrepreneurial leaders, future stars, British local entrepreneurs, Chinese entrepreneurs, unicorn CEOs, British celebrities and many elites, gathering a young and energetic energy to discuss the new journey of entrepreneurship and innovation.
This is the first time Hurun Report has held an event in the UK themed around young entrepreneurial forces, and also the first time the Hurun UK Under30s list was released. The UK has one of the best entrepreneurial ecosystems in the world, and the purpose of Hurun UK Under30s is to find the most successful young entrepreneurs in the UK, who are most likely to create domestic enterprises with a scale of billions of dollars in the future, becoming the next generation of future unicorn companies, or even Fortune 500 companies.
Rupert Hoogewerf, Hurun Report Chairman and Chief Researcher, said:
"The purpose of Hurun UK Under30s is to find the most successful young entrepreneurs in the UK. Behind every successful startup you see, there are tens of thousands of failed companies. I hope this UK Under30s list can help young entrepreneurs find role models for their own businesses. The UK has one of the best entrepreneurial ecosystems in the world, ranking fourth after the United States, China, and India, with 46 unicorn companies (non-public companies valued at more than 1 billion US dollars established after 2000) and 30 gazelles (non-public companies valued at more than 500 million US dollars established after 2000, and most likely to become unicorns within three years)."
Promoting the spirit of British entrepreneurship, helping young entrepreneurial leaders shine on the world stage
With the continuous deepening and development of the event, the "Hurun U Series" is gradually becoming a beacon in the hearts of young entrepreneurs around the world, illuminating their way forward, inspiring them to bravely chase their dreams, continue to explore the unknown, and finally shine on the world stage. Through such efforts, the "Hurun U Series" hopes to contribute to the sustainable development of the global economy and promote the construction of a more prosperous, harmonious and innovative world.
