Who We Are and What We Do: 

Nerdstock is a growing non-profit coalition of gifted individuals—polymaths, neurodivergents, polymaths, autodidacts, and outside-the-box thinkers and creators—interconnecting and utilizing shared passions and natural cognitive assets to form a global neuronal network that has the capacity to elucidate and alleviate the most intractable challenges facing humanity today. With a focus on research and development, we aim to produce ideas and actionable prototypes that can be taken into the world and administered to the obstacles inhibiting people from thriving in their environments. By bringing together our individual gifts and strengths, we hope to generate novel concepts and initiatives to tackle issues in education, local and global policy, climate change and sustainability, health and wellness, science and technology, and many other factors contributing to crises in human holistic well-being. 

Where We’re Going: 

Nerdstock is not just an event, but an actionable movement. At our events, people will come together to work on specific concerns. We will bring in mentors and experts from multiple disciplines to help further understanding and to propel our ideas into prototypes and innovations that will be successful when born into the world. Our events will also bring in perspectives and activities from art, music, philosophy, and multi-cultural influences from around the globe to bring us together and cultivate further understanding, empathy, and love for ourselves and the natural world around us. Outside of our curated events, we will incubate ideas and innovations to enhance and sustain their resilience with research and fundraising.  

We hope to establish salons around the world where people can come together to visit or live, hold events, network resources, research scientific breakthroughs, and offer education and support for gifted and polymathic individuals looking to put forth their energy into causes that benefit the good of humanity.
