Jahin Tanvir is the CEO of the Australian School of Entrepreneurship, a three-time TEDx speaker, investor and high-performance coach. At just 21 years old, he was named among the 40 Under 40 Most Influential Asian-Australians.

At 21, Jahin became CEO of the Australian School of Entrepreneurship, making him one of the youngest leaders of a national social enterprise in Australia. Since then, ASE has grown into the country's largest youth-led social enterprise, supporting 274,197 young Australians through life skills education, leadership development and entrepreneurship programs. Notably, 51% of participants come from regional, rural and remote communities.

Participants in ASE programs have generated more than $16 million in income, revenue and funding through businesses, projects and community initiatives, strengthening local economies and pathways into employment.

Born in Bangladesh and raised in Western Sydney, Jahin understands firsthand the role confidence, opportunity and mentorship play in shaping young people's futures. He was previously a finalist for Young Australian of the Year and named Canberra Young Citizen of the Year during his time as a university student.

Beyond his work in education and entrepreneurship, Jahin is a recognised Imposter Syndrome expert and high-performance coach, working across sport and corporate environments. He has supported athletes and teams within Formula 1, Cricket NSW, Sydney FC, Melbourne City FC, NRL Bulldogs and Red Bull, and delivered leadership and performance training for organisations including Westpac, Canva, Microsoft, Specsavers, Suncorp, Atlassian and multiple Australian government clients.

Jahin is also a regular media commentator, appearing on ABC's Q+A, ABC News, Channel 9 and Channel 7, where he speaks on leadership, youth engagement and performance under pressure. He has a background in optometry and has previously served as a UNICEF Australia Young Ambassador, reflecting his commitment to evidence-based practice and social impact.

As a first-generation migrant, Jahin is driven by a simple belief: postcode, background or circumstance should never define potential. His work bridges education, industry and community, helping young people step into leadership now, not later.
