Current Projects


"We see with our brain no less than we see with our eyes."On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of Albert Einstein's creation of the General Theory of Relativity, we invited our inaugural community of 100 geniuses to share their visions for the future. The result is Genius: 100 Visions of the Future, the world's first 3D-printed book. Designed by renowned industrial designer, artist, and architect Ron Arad, the collection is produced in the likeness of its inspiration, Einstein himself. While the first-edition print run is highly limited, the book's reach has already proven itself to be profound – and not only because, in partnership with NASA, a copy was printed in space. As our foundational project, Genius: 100 Visions was the spark that ignited collaborative energy between its contributors. It points to inspiring, untried paths, and fuels the commitment and excitement that drive the Genius 100 visionaries to work together to develop solutions and breakthroughs for the near and distant future.– Amir Amedi, G100 Visionary


"Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile."– Colonel Chris Hadfield, G100 Visionary
