We nurture brilliant minds Who still dare to think differently and creatively.
This is essential to progress, because old habits do not open new doors.
If we genuinely want breakthrough solutions for poverty, cancer treatment, space exploration, mobility, energy, healthy food supply, etc., we must nurture those who dare to think differently.
And those groundbreaking —often initially perceived as crazy— ideas, come from those who have the guts to express and test them. They have what it takes: creative confidence. They go beyond the fear of the unknown, the fear of taking the first step, the fear of losing control, and the fear of being judged.
In the face of this deep systemic crisis we live in,
we help children and students with the support they need to develop their own ideas and solutions.
