Manshu Sharma, Hill ’17, has been offered the chance to present to leading business leaders and innovators at the Global Entrepreneurship Congress in Johannesburg, South Africa, March 13-16, 2017, in recognition of a mobile app he and other high school students founded.
His group, creators of the meetHere networking app, are not only the only high school participants: They also were the only competitors from the U.S. to become finalists in the global World Hottest Start Ups competition, hosted by CNBC.
Manshu met his meetHere colleagues during a summer program at the University of Pennsylvania. When Manshu is not working on their new company, he is serving as president of Hill’s Student Government Association; acting as CEO of Hill’s robotics team and assistant coach of the debate team; serving on Hill’s DECA Chapter Advisory Board; participating on the Student Philanthropy Council; and leading the Peer Tutors, among other endeavors.
