Kolawole tytler

I am a 27 year old sneakerhead, entrepreneur and NHS doctor, based in London and currently working in Surrey.

I hold a medicine MBBS degree from King’s College London and I have successfully completed short courses in the fields of law and business at the London School of Economics and Imperial College London universities.

I am currently undertaking a Master of Business Administration degree at the University of Birmingham.

I am the founder and co-owner of dropout®, a business specialized in the sale of limited edition sneakers and streetwear, present in Milan, Italy, with a physical retail location and online

Opened in 2018, dropout® quickly proved a huge success and is currently one of the country's most reknown stores, as well as a must-destination for fashion enthusiasts.

The streetwear resale market represents a tens of billions worth "industry" which is largely underestimated by traditional investors. One of my goals is to gain a better understanding of how this vastly unregulated market operates while contributing to reshaping the rules of fashion economics.

With a mathematical approach, via my project HypeAnalyzer we objectively analyze and report trends in the resell market of Nike, Adidas, Jordan Brand, Balenciaga and Asics sneakers, as well as assessing the value of selected items from the weekly drop of the streetwear label Supreme NewYork 1994.

Between 2015 and 2018 I was one of 2 masterminds behind YEEZY Mafia, media outlet surrounding the sneakers released by Kanye West which now features millions of followers and is the worldwide reference for all things YEEZY.

Following a highly successful equity crowdfunding campaign, dropout is now backed by Azimut SPA (which invested via its ELTIF Alicrowd) and A.Celli group, as well as over 150 retail investors. dropout's latest post-money valuation is around €2.3M.

I look forward to connect with like-minded individuals and to explore potential expansions for my current business activities.
