What we do
Young Ventures supports affiliated ventures and external clients across the full arc of a technology product — strategy and research at the front, engineering and partnerships through the middle, commercialization at the end.
01 — Build
Software and product-development support across the stack — agentic workflows, data pipelines, smart-contract systems, and the market infrastructure underneath them. Architecture through deployment.
02 — Research
Applied and frontier research — quantum cryptography, market microstructure, mechanism design — translated into rigorous theses, white papers, and research partnerships that ventures can build on.
03 — Advise
Product strategy, ecosystem partnerships, fundraising support, and commercialization. Where AI and crypto products meet financial regulation, market structure, and institutional capital.
Areas of focus
Perpetuals, derivatives, prediction markets, and the exchange rails beneath them. Designing tradable products from raw fundamentals and metrics.
On-chain protocol design, tokenomics, and deployment — including app-specific orderbooks and high-throughput venues such as Hyperliquid HIP-3.
Quantum money, verifiable scarcity, and the cryptographic foundations of money in a post-quantum world — through open research and convening.
Frontier-model integration and multi-agent architectures for research, diligence, and production data pipelines.
Ventures we're building
Young Ventures originates and develops its own founder-led ventures. Building products ourselves keeps us close to the same technical, market, and regulatory problems our clients face.
The first venue to buy and sell revenues, cash flows, and EPS surprises — a fundamentals-based perpetuals exchange built on Hyperliquid HIP-3. Take a view on the number, not the price reaction around it.

A global RFP and event series designing Bitcoin-like systems built on new verifiable scarcities. Convenings have run in San Francisco and London, bringing together researchers from Cambridge, Google Quantum AI, and beyond.

Selected work & recognition
Capital markets
Investment-committee role at a leading crypto fund, following macro and EM-equities seats at Brevan Howard and Norges Bank's emerging-markets desk.
Convening
Organized two quantum-finance convenings, the London edition gathering ~50 researchers and practitioners with speakers from Cambridge, Google Quantum AI, and Project 11. A Quantum Finance Symposium with NYU is in planning.
Research
A structured research corpus — a 125-paper bibliography across 22 quantum-money scheme families, with a classification schema for security, decentralization, and implementation status.
Building
First place at ETHGlobal London, Imperial HealthTech champion, and a first-place stock-pitch win against 75 teams at McGill — across Python, Solidity, React, and ML systems.
Ways we partner
Engagements are tailored. Young Ventures earns through consulting fees, technical-service agreements, research partnerships, and product-development or commercial agreements — structured to fit the work.
STRATEGIC ADVISOR
High-level strategy, fundraising support, targeted introductions, and counsel across GTM, partnerships, market structure, and regulation.
Best for founders who need leverage, judgment, and network access.
TECHNICAL ENGAGEMENT
Hands-on product, research, and engineering support under a technical-service agreement — pipelines, protocol design, white papers, and special projects.
Best for teams that need an operator inside the work, not a consulting deck.
VENTURE PARTNER
Long-term collaboration with aligned incentives — equity, revenue share, or partnership structures — where there's deep conviction in the market.
Best for ambitious teams building in markets, blockchain, or research.
About
Young Ventures is a Delaware technology consulting and venture-development company focused on software, internet, blockchain, and digital market-infrastructure projects. It provides product strategy, technical research, software and product-development support, business development, ecosystem partnerships, and commercialization strategy for affiliated ventures and external clients.
The company is operated by Young Loon Ling — a builder and investor whose work spans Multicoin Capital's investment committee, Brevan Howard, Norges Bank, Nansen, and Folius Ventures, and who studied Econometrics & Mathematical Economics at the London School of Economics (First Class Honours, Sir Charlie Bean Prize).
Through Young Ventures, that work now takes the form of founder-led ventures — Magnitude Markets and Wiesner Labs — and selective consulting and research partnerships with external clients.
