Think you can outsmart a genius?
Here’s your chance to try — and if you succeed, you’ll get a lot more than an ego boost.
You’ll get the serious bragging rights that come with helping to end world hunger.
Idea Aid is a weeklong Internet campaign launching today. Sponsored by Mensa Process, the consulting arm of the genius club Mensa, the campaign aims to collect practical strategies for getting food to people without enough of it. The theory is if you put 100,000 people in a room and ask them to solve a problem, you’re likely to get some creative solutions. But put 100,000 of the certified smartest people in the world in that same room, and you might just get a few solutions that work.
