Welcome
The Paragon program annually selects 100 young entrepreneurs and social changemakers of up to 30 years of age from Asia Pacific who are an inspiration to other young people.
On this site you can find their inspiring stories, stories from young people in Asia Pacific, who had the desire and guts to make a change and to stride out and start their own venture. Your can read about their background and their ventures, and if you also desire to get started you can find resources such as entrepreneurship courses and current business plan competition.
Get inspired by the stories of the Paragon fellows and take actions to one day become a Paragon yourself.
