The joint study by KPMG and HSBC covers the Asia Pacific’s
technology-focused start-up landscape and identifies businesses
that are the emerging giants in the region. It has listed the top
10 companies in various locations, including Malaysia, Japan,
Indonesia, India, Hong Kong and Singapore. GeniusU was listed as
one of the top 10 in the Singapore region and sits alongside
businesses in the Fintech, Audiotech and Web3 sectors. GeniusU,
being an edtech platform company, is well placed to sit alongside
these other disruptive tech businesses.
Roger James Hamilton, Founder, and CEO of Genius Group comments,
“We are delighted to have been recognised as an emerging giant and
as the only edtech company listed for Singapore, this is a
testament to our growth and global strategy. Our roots are in
Singapore, but our reach is global, and we will continue to expand
our community around the world.”
KPMG & HSBC’s analysis was based on pitchbook data and
looked at 6,472 companies originating in the Asia Pacific region
with valuations of US$500 million or less.

About Genius Group
Genius 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 2.9 million
students in 200 countries, ranging from ages 0 to 100. The group
includes four pre-IPO companies (the “Pre-IPO Group”), and four
companies being acquired at the time of the closing of the IPO (the
“IPO Acquisitions”).
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 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 are the first step towards this. They include:
Education Angels, which provides early learning in New Zealand for
children from 0-5 years old; E-Squared Education, which provides
primary and secondary school education in South Africa; the
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, UK.
Genius Group’s post-IPO 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.
