Short description: Singapore-based Edtech company

Genius Group is a Singapore-based global Edtech and education company founded in 2002 by Cambridge University graduate, Roger James Hamilton. Genius Group is listed on NYSE American and delivers a lifelong learning curriculum to students in various countries.[7][8]

The company states that its mission is to develop an entrepreneurial education system that prepares students for the 21st century.[9]

History

Genius Group was founded in 2002 when Singapore-based entrepreneur, Roger James Hamilton created the Wealth Dynamics system as a personality profiling tool for entrepreneurs to discover their strengths and weaknesses, and build an entrepreneurial team.[10]

From 2012 to 2015, Genius Group developed a number of initiatives under the Entrepreneurs Institute brand. This included the Global Entrepreneur Summit, Talent Dynamics, and a full entrepreneur system to grow from start-up to the first million dollars in revenue called “The Millionaire Masterplan”.[11][12][13]

In 2020, Genius Group made a string of acquisitions to strengthen its entrepreneur education offerings. In July 2020, Genius Group Ltd acquired Entrepreneur Resorts for $32 million, with the existing shareholders exchanging their shares in Entrepreneur Resorts for shares in Genius Group Ltd. While Entrepreneur Resorts is still a public listed company on the Seychelles MERJ stock exchange, it is 98% owned by Genius Group Ltd.

Genius Group Ltd entered into agreements to acquire Education Angels, E-Square, Property Investors Network, and the University of Antelope Valley with acquisitions closing on or soon after the company’s IPO.[14][15][16][17]

On 12 April 2022, Genius Group had its IPO on NYSE American at an IPO share price of $6.00, issuing 3,763,636 ordinary shares, including 490,909 ordinary shares issued pursuant to the full exercise by the underwriter of its over-allotment option, and raising $22.5 million.[18][19]
