About Genius Group
Genius Group is a world-leading entrepreneur Edtech and
education group, with a mission to disrupt the current education
model with a student-centered, life-long learning curriculum that
prepares students with the leadership, entrepreneurial and life
skills to succeed in today’s market. The group has over 2.9 million
students in 200 countries, ranging from ages 0 to 100. The group
includes four pre-IPO companies (the “Pre-IPO Group”), and four
companies acquired at the time of, or shortly after, the closing of
the company’s initial public offering (the “IPO Acquisitions”).
The entrepreneur education system of our Pre-IPO Group has been
delivered virtually and in-person, in multiple languages, locally
and globally mainly via the Pre-IPO Group’s artificial intelligence
(AI)-powered, personalized GeniusU Edtech platform to adults
seeking to grow their entrepreneur and leadership skills.
The Pre-IPO Group includes Genius Group, GeniusU, Entrepreneurs
Institute and Entrepreneur Resorts. This group of entrepreneur
education companies has grown through organic growth and
acquisitions, with a focus on adding value to each company through
GeniusU, which is being developed to provide AI-driven personal
recommendations and guidance for each student. The Pre-IPO Group is
now expanding its education system to age groups beyond its current
adult audience, to children and young adults. The four IPO
Acquisitions are the first step towards this. They include:
Education Angels, which provides early learning in New Zealand for
children from 0-5 years old; E-Square, which provides primary and
secondary school education in South Africa; University of Antelope
Valley, which provides vocational certifications and university
degrees in California, USA; and Property Investors Network, which
provides property investment courses and events in England.
Genius Group’s current plan is to combine the education programs
of the IPO Acquisitions with its current education programs and
Edtech platform as part of one lifelong learning system, and it has
selected these acquisitions because they already share aspects of
the Genius curriculum and its focus on entrepreneur education.
