ABOUT US
Everyone is destined to do great work; everyone desires to realize his/her own future.
But where does one start?? How does one identify the passions and skills that make them unique? How do you choose college and a career to maximize your potential?
FUTURELY found a “recipe” to answer these questions and to accompany students in personalized programs that empower their awareness, ambition, and openness, combining fun and innovation.
FUTURELY (www.myfuturely.com) is an early-stage startup focused on building the #1 digital career counseling service that is personalized, guided, interactive, Genz oriented. After the launch in Silicon Valley, we exponentially grew in the US, where both students and schools love us!
We invest immensely in our team, made of young, talented, and ambitious entrepreneurs, data scientists, and designers, coming from Harvard, MIT, BCG, McKinsey and Amazon, listed in ForbesUnder30. Thanks to this team, we are not just building a fantastic product, but we are dramatically changing US education while filling the gap between schools and jobs.
