Gerard Adams was born December 20, 1984. Adams created Elite Daily, a revolutionary news platform targeting millennials. Adams founded Elite Daily in 2012 combining social media and traditional media to appeal to younger generations. Elite Daily’s slogan is “The Voice of Generation Y”. In 2015 Adams sold Elite Media to Bustle Digital Group for approximately $50 million.
After selling Elite Daily, Adams established Fownders, a start up accelerator. Adams started a startup designed to help other startups!
Entrepreneurs pay a monthly subscription to gain access to networks and education for newly established businesses. Fownders promises tangible results if entrepreneurs exercise the resources provided by Fownders.
I think that Adams has done a great job of satisfying immediate needs and following the current trends. He has found his target audience and is focusing all his time and energy on them.
