3. A Note to Entrepreneurs
Are you an entrepreneur?
If you are shaping your own destiny, choosing the impact you make
and how you will make it then, yes, you are an entrepreneur.
At the beginning of the new millennium, there were less than 100
million entrepreneurs on the planet. Today, the number is over
400 million, and there are a projected 1 billion entrepreneurs by
2020. The Entrepreneur Movement is the largest global shift in
vocation the world has ever seen.
Entrepreneurs Institute is where the Entrepreneur Movement meets.
We launched five years ago with a mission to connect and empower
entrepreneurs around the world to grow the businesses they run
and the impact they have.
Today, we have over 500,000 entrepreneurs from over 100 countries
within our network, and we are growing by over 20,000 new entrepreneurs every month.
The core principle behind Entrepreneurs Institute is that in today’s world we are overloaded with
information and lacking in direction. Entrepreneurs Institute enables you to know where you are and
where you’re going - and then gives you the steps to get there.
We do this through our online platform, assessments to discover your purpose, passions and talents,
learning tools, events, mentoring, entrepreneur beach clubs and entrepreneur resorts.
Roger James Hamilton
Founder, Entrepreneurs Institute
As a fellow entrepreneur, welcome to Entrepreneurs Institute. Join the Entrepreneur
Movement, and use our resources to help you on your journey by getting clearer on four
areas of focus: Who you are, where you are, where you’re going and how to get there.
Keep shining brightly,
“You don’t need to know every step.
You just need to know the right step, right now.”
4. In 2016, the United Nations set the measures for the new 17 UN Sustainable Development
Goals. These are bold, global goals essential to the future of humanity and our planet: From
ending poverty, to ensuring equality, to caring for the environment.
Today, it is the entrepreneurs of the world - even more so than the politicians and economists
- who have the greatest power to trigger change through innovation, enterprise and grass
roots impact.
Every day more entrepreneurs are joining this Entrepreneur Movement, where they are
growing their businesses for both purpose and profit.
If you are already an entrepreneur, one of your greatest challenges is in finding and connect-
ing with other entrepreneurs and investors aligned to your purpose. This is why Entrepre-
neurs Institute is growing at the rate that we are, connecting entrepreneurs both online and
at our events and locations with others that have a common purpose, shared passions,
and complimentary talents.
If you are aspiring to be an entrepreneur, the challenge is even greater. Our education system
today does not train our young people to be able to grow their own business. Instead, they
are training them for jobs (despite, by current estimates, 50% of existing jobs disappearing
due to technology in the next 10 years).
At Entrepreneurs Institute, we believe that entrepreneurship is a mindset and a set of skills
that can be learned. We see, time and again, that when you are in an entrepreneurial environ-
ment with positive, resourceful leaders, it is only a matter of time before you pick up the same
entrepreneurial attributes.
This is why Entrepreneurs Institute has launched GeniusU to connect Apprentice Entrepre-
neurs with experienced entrepreneurs globally, and to provide self-awareness tests, learning
missions and resources for free to enable anyone to join the Entrepreneur Movement.
Our 2030 Mission
“We are the ones we have been waiting for.”
“Academics need to know in order to do.
Entrepreneurs need to do in order to know.”
The Greatest Opportunity and Challenge of our Time
5. Within the
next 5 Years
Within the
next 10 Years
Within the
next 15 Years
By 2020 we will live in a dramati-
cally different world, with anoth-
er two billion people online, and
with one billion entrepreneurs
on the planet. Technology will
have an even greater impact on
our society than it has had in the
last ten years, with driverless
cars, connected homes, virtual
reality and augmented reality
changing the way we connect
and interact with each other.
By 2020 within Entrepreneurs
Institute we see purpose
streams on GeniusU supporting
each of the 17 UN Sustainable
Development goals, with entre-
preneurs working with each
other aligned by purpose, having
a measurable impact on our
future.
By 2020 we aim to have 5 entre-
preneur resorts and 50 entre-
preneur beach clubs providing
mentoring and a meeting place
for entrepreneurs around
the world.
By 2025 artificial intelligence will
have advanced to a level where
we will have an entirely different
relationship with technology.
Sensors will provide us with real
time data on transformation in
every part of our world. As entre-
preneurs, we will be globally
empowered and connected with
instant translation. Space travel
will change our relationship with
our planet and ourselves.
By 2025 we believe that
entrepreneurship as a vocation
will be taught in schools as a
preferred option to employment.
More than half the jobs today will
no longer exist.
We see Entrepreneurs Institute
as a key driver in the Entrepre-
neur Movement, working togeth-
er with schools, entrepreneurs,
NGOs and governments to
provide entrepreneur
education globally.
By 2030 we are optimistic
that, given our combined efforts
today, the rapid rise in both
technology and our own will to
harness that technology for
good will lead to many solutions
to our current global challenges.
This won’t happen on its own,
but by entrepreneurs, investors
and organizations working
together towards meaningful,
measurable change.
Provided we begin empowering
and connecting the entrepre-
neur movement today, most if
not all the UN Sustainable
Development Goals will be
achieve through our collective
efforts.
This is the concept of “World
Wide Wealth” that we are com-
mitted to: Growing our collec-
tive ability to create and contrib-
ute wealth for the future we all
want for ourselves, our future
generations, and our planet.

6. How do we personalize your journey to give you what
you need, when you need it? We have created
personalized pathways for four levels of Entrepreneurs:
Apprentice Entrepreneurs, Startup Entrepreneurs,
Exponential Entrepreneurs and EI Partners.
Each pathway includes a series of steps that enable
you to progress at your own pace from where you
are now, to a far higher level of expertise, awareness,
connections and resources as an entrepreneur.
Each pathway begins with simple assessments and our
online community, through to local events, global
locations and high-level mentoring.

At each step, your level of clarity and

areas of focus: Who you are, where you
are, where you’re going and how to
get there.
The Four Entrepreneur Pathways
7. Entrepreneur Mentoring
Higher levels of success come with higher levels of complexity, and require higher
levels of expert guidance. We have connected with world class mentors to provide
you with more personalized advice and support as your companies grow. Connect
with our global network of consultants, coaches and mentors. Roger also runs his
own global mentoring programs through his Entrepreneur Mastermind and
Crystal Circle community of entrepreneurs and investors.
Personal Assessments
We have the widest range of personal assessments to ensure you follow the path
that is right for you on your entrepreneurial journey. This includes: the Purpose
Test, the Passion Test and the Genius Test. These help you follow your natural
path, find the right team, and connect with others aligned to your purpose, sharing
your passions and complementing your talents.
We also have assessments within every learning mission on our GeniusU mobile
platform, and additional tests including Talent Dynamics, Wealth Dynamics and
the Wealth Spectrum, identifying your current level of entrepreneurship.
GeniusU
On GeniusU, you can find other entrepreneurs that align to your purpose, share
your passions and complement your talents. You can build teams and partner-
ships around your own project, or join the enterprises or projects that need your
help. Whether you follow GeniusU’s recommendations or explore and discover for
yourself, you will find that GeniusU helps you track your own progress as an
entrepreneur, and our collective progressive towards the UN Global Goals.
Entrepreneur Locations
To support entrepreneurs to grow global businesses, where you can work from
anywhere and learn from everywhere, we are setting up a chain of Entrepreneur
Resorts and Entrepreneur Beach Clubs around the world, so that you have a way
to learn, earn and make an impact from paradise locations - all in countries that
also need your support.
Entrepreneur Events
GeniusU includes a calendar of entrepreneur events around the world, giving you
a schedule to connect with other leading learners in your field. We also hold regu-
lar events, from our iLab Accelerators at our Entrepreneur Resort to the Fast

8. At the heart of Entrepreneurs Institute is GeniusU - Our mobile
learning platform connecting entrepreneurs around the world.
We have over 500,000 entrepreneurs now on GeniusU, allowing you to connect with the
right network, knowledge and opportunities based on your personal purpose, passions
and genius, stage of business growth, location and other personalized information.
Whether you are an Apprentice Entrepreneur just getting started, a Startup Entrepre-
neur launching your business, an Exponential Entrepreneur scaling your company, an
investor or a mentor, GeniusU will give you the best next steps to take.
It does this via recommendations on the best next thing to do, next thing to learn and
next person to connect with based on where you are and where you want to go.
These recommendations are ranked by our entrepreneur community and Genie,
GeniusU’s resident A.I.
GeniusU
Where the Movement Meets
“Your success is not determined by how much you
are committed to your success. It is determined by
how many others you surround yourself with who
are committed to your success.”
9. Your Personal
Genius Stream
Artificial Intelligence allows us to cut
through the noise and take the mass of
information into more personalized
direction. But most A.I. is backward
facing, looking at your past habits and
giving you more of the same.
GeniusU’s A.I. is forward facing, based
on our online assessments on where
you are, where you want to go, and the
best steps to get there.
Future Facing
Direction
Measure your
Progress
You can track and measure your progress
on your Dashboard. You can build your
Genius Points through curating content and
grow your learning, build your Trust Points
through the entrepreneurs you connect
with, support and work with, and build your
Purpose Points through the impact you
have and the apprentices you help.
GeniusU gives you a personal Genius
Stream, providing you all the latest
updates, news and connections from
the circles that you have joined.
Your Genius Profile gives other entre-
preneurs a snapshot of who you are,
your purpose, passions and talents,
links to your social media pages, and the
events, missions and opportunities you
are a part of.
News you can
do with
GeniusU includes news, events and
missions curated and linked to your
purpose, passions, industry and location. It
allows you to find the right mentors, inves-
tors, partners and opportunities to move
you and your team forward each day.
GeniusU is an open platform, linking to
other platforms you use, including news
sites, event apps, productivity apps, social
media sites, messaging apps, crowdsourc-
ing platforms, with ability to organise and
rank that content specifically for the Entre-
preneur Movement. That’s why GeniusU is
the place where the Entrepreneur Move-
ment meets.
10. Discover your path
Join GeniusU and take the Purpose Test, Passion Test, Genius Test and Wealth Spectrum.
These will give you clarity on where to focus to follow your natural path to your personal
flow. When you are following your natural path, you become of greatest value to others.
Contribute to GeniusU
Each Genius Stream links to an area of interest, an industry, a company, a mentor, event
or project. Each requires the support of apprentices to moderate and curate. From the
day you join GeniusU, you can already begin adding value to others, by adding and
curating news and content.
Become an Apprentice
Too many new entrepreneurs make the mistake of trying to launch a business when they
don’t yet have the skills needed to attract customers, serve them well, manage finances
or lead a team. Join an entrepreneurial company, as an entrepreneur apprentice to learn
from the inside. Choose a role that aligns with your purpose and passions, and in a role
that makes the most of your talents.
Become a Partner
Entrepreneurs Institute and GeniusU grows through word-of-mouth and our partners.
It’s free to join as a partner, and when you join you’ll get a series of tools and resources
to earn and learn, your own Entrepreneurs Institute website and access to our global
partner community.

business, or first-time entrepreneur, GeniusU provides you with a simple and free pathway to
connect with other entrepreneurs where the cost is simply your time and commitment.
Explore and discover
Success as an entrepreneur is a daily practice of building confidence and credibility. Once

tools, resources, mentors and connections so that you aren't trying to figure it out by yourself.
