YouthTrade
is a project of Y.E.S. (Youth Entrepreneurship and Sustainability). YouthTrade is a social movement created to connect entrepreneurs under the age of thirty-five to retailer markets. For these entrepreneurs' products to be YouthTrade certified they need to have a higher purpose and uphold the triple bottom line of people, the planet and profit. The idea for YouthTrade was inspired by Conscious Capitalism. While at a CC conference, CEO Poonam Ahluwalia was inspired and had the idea of YouthTrade, Poonam has a close relationship with some members of the CC board. YouthTrade was founded in 2011 and is located in Cambridge, MA.
