@thenumbersgame1: 📊 At just 25, James Dacombe is the UK’s youngest self-made billionaire, with a stake in his AI chip company worth over $1B. The Harrogate-born founder started coding at 13, dropped out of sixth form after just two days, and launched his first company, CoMind, at 17. He then founded Olix, an AI chip startup building specialised hardware designed to make large AI models faster and more efficient. After raising $312M, Olix reached a $3.3B valuation, making Dacombe one of only a handful of self-made billionaires in the world under 30. And somehow, he’s still running both companies.

wait, wait, wait ✋️you need a background in medicine AND tech to even consider such a startup. How does a 16yo achieve that, and raise investors BEFORE clinical trials to prove its working?

The currency of the uk is sterling not dollars so he is not a billionaire, with that logic everyone’s a billionaire if they have £500 as that’s 1 billion Iranian rials

I went to Harrogate for work once and everyone was so sweet! It snowed and the trains were delayed back to London and the train station staff were so helpful and caring! Left such a lasting impression on me.
