At the recent Global Impact Investor Summit 2022 hosted on the
Edtech platform GeniusU, and attended by over 2,000 investors from
100 countries, keynote speakers including: World-renowned investor
Jim Rogers; Roger James Hamilton, Founder & CEO of Genius
Group; Marcus de Maria; Founder and Chairman of Investment Mastery;
Simon Zutshi, Founder & CEO of property investors network; and
Mark Robinson, Founder of International Academy of Wealth, shared
their top 10 investment trends for 2022.
1. Dollar
Destruction – 35% of all U.S.
Dollars in existence have been printed in the last 10 months. This
endless printing of money is not helping economies or the wealth
gap between the rich and the poor and resulting in the record
inflation rates we are seeing today. Banks around the world are
predicting a recession towards the end of 2023 and early 2024,
worse than we have previously seen and leading to what Jim Rogers
predicts will be “the worst bear market in our lifetimes.”
2. The
Age of Exponentials – As we see the fall of Society 4.0
and the disconnection and distrust from Society 4.0 and the
information age, we are also seeing the birth of Society 5.0 and
the imagination age, with the growth of new exponential
technologies in Edtech, Medtech, Greentech, Spacetech and Fintech.
Society 5.0 will see big data collected by IOT and converted into a
new type of intelligence by AI, impacting every corner of society
and decentralizing the remaining centralized systems such as
education, medical, energy, space and finance. This future will see
investments being focused on investing in the future, with investor
Cathie Wood saying, “the future of investing is investing in the
future.”
3. The
Meme Generation – We are moving from the “Me” generation
to the “Meme” generation. In the Society 4.0 “Me” generation,
influencers, youtubers and celebrities profited from their ability
to leverage global platforms to create viral growth. In the Society
5.0 “Meme” generation, their followers and communities are now
co-investing and co-profiting from the same viral growth. The
combination of retail investing, NFTs and cryptocurrencies linked
to viral themes is democratizing capital and enabling global
communities to create both impact and income on the products and
missions that have viral appeal.
4. The DeFi
economy – In the Information Age, media and communication
went through Peter Diamandis’ six Ds of exponentials: Becoming
digitized, demonitized, dematerialized and democratized, with the
curve of change beginning as deceptive and ending as disruptive. We
are now at the beginning of the same curve with the banking and
global investment system, where a heavily centralized system of
government and private banks are being bypassed by new
decentralized forms of trust, from cryptocurrencies to smart
contracts and decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs). The
result of this over the next decade is a shift in the system away
from the middleman to new decentralized finance models that are
faster, cheaper and self-regulated.
5. Stocks
& Crypto Trading – Traditional currency is being taken
away from the individual at source via taxes, bank charges, the
rising costs of goods and currency debasement. While trading in
stocks and cryptocurrencies is highly volatile right now, they
potentially provide a hedge against the fall in fiat currencies as
well as a hedge against the rise of artificial intelligence and
robotics. In the future, individuals will not need to earn through
jobs under threat of technological employment when they can instead
earn by investing in the companies that are creating the AI and
robots, and have the robots work for them.
6. The
Digital Decade – The revenue from the virtual world is
projected to approach $400 billion by 2025. We are moving into a
new blockchain-enabled metaverse with a digital layer across all
real-world assets from property to companies to currencies,
enabling investors and entrepreneurs to share in the present and
future value of their assets in real time and across borders.
7. The
Rise of Robots – Automation will empower humans and
increase productivity and wage growth. It has the potential to
shift unpaid labour to paid labour and Cathie Wood, CEO of Ark
Invest, believes that automation will add 5% or $1.2 trillion to US
GDP over the next 5 years. This will transform the world of work
and lead to a shift in the dynamics of enterprise itself. Within
ten years, the most competitive companies are likely to have an
A.I. driven robot on their board or even as their CEO.
8. Genius
Generation – By 2025, entrepreneurship is likely to be
taught in schools and as a preferred option to employment. To keep
up with the pace of change, students are going to need to learn how
to create a job instead of get a job that may not exist when they
are trained and ready. Edtech will continue to improve people’s
skills, wealth and life chances with more education available to a
wider demographic. The UN sustainable development goals will be met
by people and companies who have invested in themselves and in the
future.
9.
Wholesale Investing – By teaming up
with other likeminded groups or collaborators, investors can access
a vast new area of wholesale investing. As with purchasing anything
in wholesale the off-market price is always less than the listed
retail price. This has traditionally been the domain of
institutional investors, investment banks and high net worth
individuals. These same opportunities are now available to retail
investors who group together to combine buying power or industry
knowledge – from property to stocks to other asset classes. We are
seeing a global shift from ‘retail investors’ to ‘wholesale
investors.’
10. Time for
Impact – The question “how are my investments making a
positive impact in the world?” is an increasingly common question
for investors, as purpose-driven profits becomes a criteria within
many investment portfolios. This goes hand-in-hand with the growth
of Society 5.0 as the coming Age of Impact, where we get to vote on
what gets focused on or fixed with our money. The division between
enterprise and philanthropy has blurred, with Elon Musk seeing the
work of Tesla and SpaceX to preserve and grow humanity as being
more purpose-driven than that of many charities. The result is
Impact Investment Portfolios that can maximise both profit and
purpose.
The Impact Investor Summit ran from March 28th
to April 1st, 2022, via the GeniusU Edtech platform, and was part
of the Impact Investor Festival, which was attended by over 20,000
investors. Hosted by Roger James Hamilton, Founder and CEO of
Genius Group, the 2-day exclusive online summit attracted over
2,000 retail and seasoned investors to participate in sessions by
world-class speakers and mentors including world-renowned investor
Jim Rogers, Marcus de Maria of Investment Mastery, Simon Zutshi of
property investors network and Mark Robinson of The International
Academy of Wealth. The Impact Investor Summit is an annual
event.

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 2.8 million students in 200 countries, ranging
from ages 0 to 100. The group includes four pre-IPO companies (the
“Pre-IPO Group”), and will include four companies intended to be
acquired at the time of, or shortly after, the closing of the
company’s initial public offering (the “IPO Acquisitions”). The
acquisitions of two of these four IPO Acquisitions, Education
Angels and Property Investors Network, have already been
consummated.
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
artificial intelligence (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 both
organically and through 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 will be the first steps towards
this expansion. They include: Education Angels, which provides
early learning in New Zealand for children from 0-5 years old;
E-Square, which provides primary and secondary school education in
South Africa; 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.
Genius Group’s current 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.
