Figma CEO Dylan Field, 33, has seen his stake in the company valued at approximately $6.6 billion after just two days of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). Field's journey to billionaire status is notable, as he dropped out of college and was a recipient of the Thiel Fellowship, a program that encourages young entrepreneurs to pursue their ventures instead of traditional education. Figma's success underscores the potential for innovative startups and the alternative paths to success available outside of conventional academic routes.
