Central Ohio Technology Phenom Receives Accolades from Microsoft

It’s hard to believe that, at the age of only 20, Kenneth Harding is considered a seasoned technology entrepreneur.  But that is exactly what you could say about this graduate of Dublin-Coffman High School who began his programming and entrepreneurial pursuits at the tender age of eight. 

Harding, who was recently named by Microsoft as Tech Student of the Month for March, began learning Microsoft programming at the hands of his father. By the time he was in high school, he and four of his friends had formed their own game studio known as Soulfire Software.  All five of these young entrepreneurs are still together developing games while they pursue various degrees from Ohio State.  Harding is enrolled at the Fisher College of Business.   

“I know a lot about technology and programming, but that doesn’t mean I’m able to make a company a success. That’s why I decided to get a business degree. I need to get competency in business,” said Harding.
