Meet India's Youngest CEO: Developed Mobile App At 9, Built Search Engine — Inspired By Mark Zuckerberg, Who Is He?

Aadithyan Rajesh was born in Kerala. At the age of 5, he moved to Dubai with his family, where his journey with technology began.

Aadithyan's fascination with technology started early, fueled by BBC Typing, a website his father introduced him to for learning how to type. 

By the age of 9, Aadithyan created his first mobile app to beat boredom and began uploading apps to Aptoide, an alternative Android marketplace. He even built a search engine called 'Ashirwad Browser' but couldn't publish it on Google Play due to the $25 base fee.

In December 2017, at just 13 years old, Aadithyan started Trinet Solutions, a Dubai-based company, with three school friends. The company offers web design, software development, and IT solutions. With over 12 completed projects, Aadithyan aims to expand globally and develop iOS apps. 

A dedicated YouTuber, Aadithyan runs a channel called ‘A Craze’, where he shares insights on coding, gaming, and web design. Inspired by Mark Zuckerberg, he dreams of building something revolutionary.

In 2018, when Kerala was hit by devastating floods, Aadithyan used his YouTube channel to raise funds for the government’s relief efforts. Later, he developed an app to connect blood donors with those in need.
