We are starting to get glimpses of global devastation as a result of inaction that has been building for decades. Left unchecked, we are quickly reaching a tipping point which we will not be able to reverse. Climate change has evolved into climate crisis and is now responsible for suffering the world over. This will only get worse if we do not come together quickly as a global family, and make the changes necessary.
The mission of the In Search of Genius film series and all of its touch points is to bring together geniuses, known and unknown, from around the globe so that every brilliant and actionable idea is brought to light. Once we understand what can be done, we can work together, support each other and make sure that humanity not only survives, but thrives.

Most of the time it is easy to recognize genius when we see it and obviously we will be engaging the best and the brightest the world has to offer.
But know that we are fierce for the underdog and will be in search of the quiet geniuses who have not been discovered, and looking for the everyday geniuses that have not yet been inspired to their potential.
​
In Search of Genius is calling forth each person’s highly individualized and unique contribution to our planet’s greatest challenges to date.
