A very simple trope. One of the top officers of the Mega-Corp happens to be far younger than should be permissible. Examples should be younger than 17 years old, which is just young enough that it seems implausible. Often the age is justified by the fact that their parents owned the controlling interest in the company, so ownership of it fell to them upon their death. This is only possible under Artistic License – Law where the setting is Like Reality, Unless Noted, as minors (especially those under the age of 12) in most developed nations cannot sign contracts or hold employment. When a parent dies, leaving control of major assets to their child or children, a Trust or Conservatorship is created to manage the assets and look after the best interests of the child. Or, at least, it's supposed to... Subtrope of Improbable Age. Related to A Child Shall Lead Them, where the kid is the ruler of a country. (The two may overlap if the company is an N.G.O. Superpower.) May overlap with Adorably Precocious Child. |

Pokémon Black 2 and White 2: The Battle Company in Castelia City is now being run by the young grandson (who has the School Kid trainer class) of the CEO from the previous games. The owner of Join Avenue assigns the protagonist (who is in their mid-teens at the oldest) to manage and develop the facilities for him, enabling the player to open and recommend all sorts of shops. |

The Simpsons: A show seen on TV is "Admiral Baby", about a baby in command of the Sixth Fleet. Another show they watch is "Supreme Courtney," about a Tween girl on the Supreme Court. (Amazingly, there is no law against a child serving on the Supreme Court. The ONLY requirement to get onto the Supreme Court is that you must be nominated by the President and confirmed by the Senate.) Long before that, Bart purchased an abandoned, dilapidated factory for one dollar, and "hires" Milhouse. It doesn't last, though, as the building crumbles and collapses. Bart invokes this trope, although it's mostly just an excuse to play and to feel important. |

Yu-Gi-Oh!: Seto Kaiba won Kaiba Corp from his step father when he was a child, and turned it from a weapons manufacturer to the major provider of the series' central Children's Card Game. In the anime adaptation this event happens on-screen as opposed to a flashback, but Kaiba is at the second grade of highschool (so 16 to 17) during the events of the series. The second in command is his little brother, Mokuba, who is in elementary school. | |

DuckTales The classic series episode "Yuppy Ducks" has Huey, Dewey, and Louie become the head of Scrooge's company after an accident happened to Scrooge. Deconstruction ensues as the boys' new ideas take a financial strain on the company, but later lampshaded it to the company board and everything goes back to normal. Equally deconstructed in the DuckTales (2017) episode "The Richest Duck in the World!" as Louie comes into possession of both Scrooge and Glomgold's businesses and is forced to deal with the fact that a multinational conglomerate takes constant difficult work to maintain and he can't just spend the company's funds on frivolities without consequence. It also makes him the target of a zombie aiming to destroy the titular titleholder. By the end, he realizes he isn't ready to be a billionaire CEO just yet and gives Scrooge his company back. |

A look at his LinkedIn profile shows that he was running an architect firm from 2002 to 2004, when he was just 17 years old, and undoubtedly because Harold forced him into the position. | |

Averted with Batman, who as eight-year-old orphan Bruce Wayne becomes a ward - either of Alfred or family friend Dr. Leslie Tompkins, depending on the era - while the Wayne Corporation falls under control of its board. Some stories have it with Bruce dealing with inter-company corruption when he becomes old enough to gain controlling status. Though, during the period where Bruce was lost in time, Dick let ten-year-old Damian attend a board meeting and intimidate everyone, and Tim started running a company-sponsored charity. |

Unlike Kaiba, who is very satisfied to control his company, this event completely broke Reiji and Himika and did a number on their mental health. | |

Natsu Tanimoto (aka Hermit) in Kenichi: The Mightiest Disciple was one when he was younger, due to his adopted father dying and leaving him with control of the company. In a rather cruel but realistic twist, the company's managers and lawyers immediately conspired together to trick the young Tanimoto into signing over control of the company and its assets to them. It's implied that this stopped soon after Tanimoto was taken in by "The Great Sage Fist", as he's still fairly wealthy at the time of the series. | |

However, the two boys are overwhelmed by the demands of running a company with one million clients, so they turn to their fathers for help and hand Planet Express back to them. | |

Yu-Gi-Oh!: Yu-Gi-Oh!: Seto Kaiba won Kaiba Corp from his step father when he was a child, and turned it from a weapons manufacturer to the major provider of the series' central Children's Card Game. In the anime adaptation this event happens on-screen as opposed to a flashback, but Kaiba is at the second grade of highschool (so 16 to 17) during the events of the series. The second in command is his little brother, Mokuba, who is in elementary school. Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V: Reiji Akaba had to take over Leo Corporation at the age of 13 after his father, Leo, abandoned his family and left for the Fusion Dimension, and three years later runs it with the help of his mother (though he calls most of the shots). Unlike Kaiba, who is very satisfied to control his company, this event completely broke Reiji and Himika and did a number on their mental health. Yu-Gi-Oh! GO RUSH!!: Twins Yuhi and Yuamu Ohdo run their company UTS after inheriting it from their parents, with Yuamu being the CEO. Unlike the other examples, which are Mega-Corps, UTS is a very small company and they have to take all kinds of small jobs to keep it afloat. |

Saturday Night Live takes this to a ridiculous extreme with "Baby CEO", who has the voice, face, and apparent mental capacity of a grown man, but the body and mannerisms of an infant. | |

Transformers: Animated: When her father is captured by the Decepticons, Sari Sumdac (age: 8) takes over running Sumdac Industries with Bumblebee as her personal assistant. She comments that after six months of running the company, she now knows why her father is always so cranky. Her tenure doesn't last long after this, as an overly ambitious/ruthless employee takes advantage of the situation to get her fired and evicted from her apartment as well. | |

While her trust board handles the day-to-day affairs of the company, she has an active stake in financial proceedings.

In Team Fortress 2, Olivia Mann, who is a small child of unspecified age, was made CEO of Gray Gravel as part of her father's Batman Gambit to take over Mann Co., who legally allows hostile takeovers if the opposing CEO wins a fight against Mann Co.'s current CEO Saxton Hale. Saxton Hale refuses to fight her, and forfeits the match and his company. | |

A fifteenth-century equivalent can be found in Cesare - Il Creatore che ha distrutto, and it's true — Cesare Borgia and Giovanni de'Medici were both bishops by age 10, due to good old Nepotism. The play shows them at 16, when the dying pope made good on his promise to made Giovanni a cardinal once he graduated. | |

Rental Magica has both Astral and Goetia assigned very young 'heirs by blood' — and in the case of Astral, a magically inept boy who had to learn on the fly — as acting presidents after the disappearance of their old bosses. Justified, as in both cases the alternatives were either worse or unavailable. | |

There are several in the Grantville Gazette short stories of the 1632 novels, though the most notable (The Higgins Sewing Machine Company) hired some adults to handle the high-level business decisions once they actually had a product that was ready for sale. Other businesses started by school children in Grantville included the sale of pipes, mushrooms, and cheese (the kids who ran the latter industry ended up becoming their parent's landlord). | |
