About Aeroventure
Our Founders
Aeroventure was built by two Long Island students who wanted to give peers the infrastructure to actually start something real in high school.
Gavin Zhao
Co-Founder
Long Island, NY
Gavin started Aeroventure because he saw talented students around him with real entrepreneurial drive and no structured path to act on it. He leads program design, mentor recruitment, and cohort operations.
Darren Chen
Co-Founder
Long Island, NY
Darren co-founded Aeroventure to close the gap between classroom theory and actual business building. He oversees partnerships, events, and the student experience from application through launch.
We built Aeroventure because we wanted to do something real — and there was no infrastructure to help us do it in high school.
— Gavin Zhao & Darren Chen, Co-Founders
