About Genius GroupGenius 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 2.7 million
students in 200 countries, ranging from ages 0 to 100. The group
includes four pre-IPO companies (the “Pre-IPO Group”), and will
include four companies intended to be acquired at the time of, or
shortly after, the closing of the company’s initial public offering
(the “IPO Acquisitions”). Two of these four IPO Acquisitions are
Education Angels and Property Investors Network .
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 will be the first steps towards this. They will
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.
