One dominant trait I’ve noticed, no matter if the publication is located in Silicon Valley or Down Under, is an enthrallment with the startups led by innovators and entrepreneurs just out of college, or not even out of college yet.

Age knows no bounds when starting a business, success is only down to how many good decisions over bad decisions you make, and how many 'failures' you come back from! Experience can help you make judgment calls, but then may make you more risk-adverse! Stay young in health & mind and have a positive outlook and you are sure to do well. Also, think about development, create something that is inclusive and aids people, try dreamidea.co.uk.

I absolutely believe that people over 30 make some of the very best entrepreneurs. By the time you reach your late 30's the kids are less dependent and you have the time, patience, and focus to carry out the many necessary, but often arduous steps in starting your own business. Also, you have a better idea of what a broader ranger of people want--you know what people in your own age group and older want, and if you don't know what people under 30 want you have the sense to do the research and find out. Great post!

I reacon by 30, you would have failed enough times to at least pull one success out of the bag. I really believe success takes time, and drive. Those who get it right first time are rare! But, i agree, around the age of 30 = best age for entrepreneur ability to start seeing results!
