Futurepreneur was founded on the belief that every child deserves the opportunity to succeed, regardless of background or access to mentors. By
equipping kids with entrepreneurial skills early on, Futurepreneur empowers them to build lives filled with passion, creativity, and financial freedom.
Krystal Popov is no stranger to turning ideas into thriving businesses. She has been featured in several Tucson, Arizona publications for her ventures, including The L Offices, a premier coworking space in Tucson, and Proper Shops, a curated space for creative entrepreneurs. Now, she brings her expertise to Futurepreneur, equipping the next generation with the tools to take control of their futures.
“I grew up watching my mother build businesses from the ground up,” Popov shared. “That experience shaped who I am today, and I want to give other kids that same head start. Futurepreneur is more than a subscription box—it’s a movement to inspire confidence, leadership, and financial independence at a young age.”
“We are at a turning point in history,” said Popov, a University of Arizona College of Engineering alumna and successful business owner. “AI is taking over repetitive tasks, and the future belongs to those who can create, innovate, and solve problems. If we don’t teach our kids how to think like entrepreneurs now, we risk leaving them unprepared for the world they’ll inherit.”
With your help, Futurepreneur will expand well beyond a direct to consumer business. Within the next year, we will be hosting Futurepreneur conventions where children and their parents can immerse themselves in an environment of inspiration, learning from young, successful entrepreneurs who will share their journeys, teach breakthrough techniques, and build the confidence that they, too, can become the next innovators or CEOs.
We will also bring these challenges to private, charter, and Montessori schools through educational and fundraising week-long events.
We've created fun mini activities teaching kids real-life business skills. Each challenge focuses on a different startup type: e-commerce tee-shirt store, small bakery, or board game design. Our aim is to inspire creativity, innovation, and a passion for entrepreneurship in young minds.
