The Start-Up Loans Company,
part of the government’s solution to help kick-start enterprise in
England and create more jobs for 18-30 year olds, is being championed by
tech whizz kid and serial entrepreneur Josh Buckley, CEO of gaming giant MinoMonsters. Although born and raised in Kent, in 2010 Josh moved to Silicon Valley to start up MinoMonsters, aged just 18.

bought a computer. He sold his company first company, Menewsha, a
virtual world, for a six-figure sum at the age of 15. Josh then went on
to create the global kids phenomenon MinoMonsters in 2011. This gaming
venture has been called “the next Disney” by many commentators. Buckley
raised $2m for the company at the age of 19 from leading venture capital
firms.
