He sold an application to Yahoo and became a millionaire at age 17
This is the application that was created Summly two years ago by Nick D'Aloisio, a start-up whose technology aggregation of information should allow the group to muscle its offer for mobile applications.

Summly automatically summarizes items of information so that content can be adapted to small screens. The application works with an algorithm that generates texts resembling natural language. It is possible to choose their preferred sources, to search by topic, keywords, and of course share everything on social networks.

This app is designed for iPhone mobiles and has already been downloaded 1 million times and has been selected by Apple among the best applications in 2012.

"In 2011 [when he was aged 15 years], I was reviewing examinations (...) I continued to click on sites that ultimately did not contain the information I was looking for. I wondered why he said 'there was not a better way for people to preview the information before plunging deeper, "said the young British boy  on the genesis of this revolutionary application that was especially made for a ​​billionaire in just one click.
