“If you had asked me 10 years ago if I would ever get to 1 million subscribers, I would have said probably not,” Brownlee admits. Today, a mere million seems like nothing. More than 12.8 million fans now subscribe to Brownlee’s gadget reviews and tech-industry analysis on MKBHD, his YouTube channel. “It blows my mind every day how many people are actually interested in tech.” With his videos attracting 700 million views in the past year, Brownlee earned $5 million or so. He’s come far from his first videos, in which he did things like review the 17- inch HP Pavilion laptop he purchased in high school. Now he’s center stage, interviewing such luminaries as Elon Musk, Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg.

This year they were photographed by one of their own: Mamadi Doumbouya, a 23-year-old immigrant from Guinea who appears in this year’s Art & Style group. Collectively, our Under 30 trailblazers have raised over $1 billion in venture funding and are proof positive that ambition and innovation can’t be quarantined.
