Ludwick Marishane

Early life

Ludwick Marishane was still in high school when he thought of DryBath, a gel that does all the work of a bath without the need for water. Within six months, the teenager had devised the formula for the gel. Within a year, he had written up a 40-page business plan, applied for a patent and launched his startup, called Headbody Industries. The product idea sounds simple: You slap on the germ-killing lotion and then you don't need to take a bath. For people with indoor plumbing this sounds like cool camping gear. But for 2.5 billion people worldwide who do not have access to clean water, DryBath is more of a life-saver than a tool of convenience.The Global Student Entrepreneur Awards Program, an international competition that recognizes high school, undergraduate, and graduate students who own a business, thought so, too. In 2011, four years after Marishane hatched the idea for his ground-breaking product, he won the organization's Global Student Entrepreneur of the Year award, along with $10,000 in cash to finance his startup. Marishane, who was studying at the University of Cape Town at the time, beat out 1,600 other student nominees from around the world.
