Equity-Based | Founder-Led | Backed by YOUNG
At the United Kingdom, we’re not building from scratch — we’re partnering with proven founders to take existing ventures to the next level.
YOUNG is aiming for companies to participate in and transform to a YOUNG Company and identity under our umbrella.
We're looking for bold entrepreneurs who have already launched a hospitality, travel or lifestyle business and are now ready to scale it with the right strategic partner.
đź’ˇ Your business should have:
✅ At least 1–2 years of proven operation
âś… Market traction and clear growth potential
✅ A founder ready to stay in the driver’s seat
Backed by YOUNG, you’ll keep full ownership of operations — while gaining access to capital, brand power, and global know-how.
This is not a job — it’s a partnership. We’ll typically come in as minority shareholders, offering deep strategic support without day-to-day involvement.
👤 YOU ARE:
âś… A founder/operator with 5+ years in hospitality, travel or lifestyle
âś… Already running a live business with real results
✅ Aligned with YOUNG’s values:
entrepreneurial, daring, long-term thinker
âś… Excited to rebrand under the YOUNG umbrella to go from local to global
🚀 WHAT YOU GET:
✨ Strategic investment and support
✨ Access to YOUNG’s international ecosystem
✨ A strong, culture-led brand to scale your business
✨ Full autonomy — you run the show
⚠️ NOT FOR EVERYONE:
If you're looking for a steady salary or want to build from zero — this isn’t the right fit. We're focusing on scalable businesses already in motion, led by founders who want to grow big, fast, and with purpose.
