This year, we are proud to have Shinya, our Co-Founder at Next Gen Investors Endowment Ltd and Gen Z Group, as one of the judges of this prestigious competition.
Gen Z Group was founded in 2020 by Shinya and Tiffany (also co-founder of Next Gen Investors Endowment Ltd). Both of them love manga (Japanese graphic novels) and investing. By marrying the two passions, they created our flagship investoon - investor education related original educational graphic novels. Under Gen Z Group, we also started to develop educational programs such as the Investoon Game Show (now termed the 'Investing Tonight Show').
Gen Z Group entered into the MAIAs in 2022 and 2023 with our flagship investoon - 'INVEST!'. INVEST! is the world's first investment webtoon which has accumulated over 16 million views across various English and Chinese platforms such as Substack, moomoo, Tiger, InvestingNote and so on.
Follow Qian, our protagonist, on an exciting journey as he stumbles into a secret university investment club and grows from an investment rookie to going head-to-head with the best of the best in a high-stakes global investing competition.
Through Gen Z Group and INVEST!, we are pleased to state that we were a finalist for the 2022 MAIAs and obtained a Special Commendation for the 2023 MAIAs.
This year, we hope to contribute back to the financial literacy community to provide recognition to budding and impactful financial literacy initiatives.
