13-year Old Silicon Valley CEO of Elementeo

This guy is 13 years old. Is the CEO of Elementeo, a silicon valley start-up. Has a 11 year old sister and also VP for his company. Has already made 450 sales of his new product. Talks like a pro marketer. He's looking to make $1 million in revenue before next summer and is seeking $100,000 in venture capital at this year's TiECON 2007, the big technology conference in Santa Clara, California. He was among Marc Benioff (Salesforce.com), Vinod Khosla (Khosla Ventures) and Tim O’Reilly (Web 2.0 thinker) giving presentations. Unable to believe it? Hear Anshul Samar speak!

Elementeo will sell a card game invented by Anshul. The game is based on the periodic table of elements. Opponents command an army of 66 cards each representing an element. The objective is to bring down the enemy by pitting say your Oxygen card to oxidize your opponent's Hydrogen by knowing they react to form water. It is simple, entertaining and educating!

Anshul already has taken down orders for about 250 of these games. He is looking to get more orders and will start shipping then. He got an initial seed funding of $500 from the California Association for the Gifted and is looking for $100,000 to fuel his sales to $1 million before he completes his 8th grade next summer.
