The Inception Story of Geniusthingks

After completing my mechanical engineering studies, I started my career as a US stockbroker, eventually becoming a branch manager. Later on, I founded a stock database company, which I sold 20 years later. Following that, I became a trustee and large-volume trader for a Swiss family office. My journey then took me to Asia, and eventually, I returned to Europe, specifically southern France (Nice), where I established several companies to explore the numerous patents I had written.

Geniusthingks is the idea conglomerate that I founded, encompassing a wide range of ideas and patents. Some of these ideas have been “spun off” to operate independently, such as abacus-ewall.com, an electric vehicle (EV) charging company. Our focus at abacus-ewall.com is to provide smart wall box systems with a holistic approach to sell complex systems to owners of apartment blocks, including dynamic load management that can handle street transformer capacity data. This ensures the protection of entire street blocks or even entire boroughs from overload when multiple EVs need to charge simultaneously.

Another important aspect of Geniusthingks is our commitment to supporting coca farmers in Colombia, encouraging them to explore alternative production methods such as high-quality juice or banana beer, utilizing their fruitful land (https://youtu.be/QEGkaIXK4gQ)

Furthermore, we have a strong presence in 3D printing services, boasting extensive knowledge and expertise in various printing methods, ranging from resin to powder to house printers. We take pride in claiming to hold the patent for the fastest realizable powder printer (https://www.geniusthingks.com/Uploads/hyperfusion-intro1.pdf).

I firmly believe that everyone should contemplate how to improve the world when I recognized the detrimental impact of egoistic ignorance on the “best intentions”. It is crucial to seek non-mainstream yet non-fake information and sometimes take a stand and fight for what we believe in. My own experiences during conscription reinforced my desire for safer and more precise weapons that minimize collateral damage.

The crisis in Ukraine caused by Russia’s aggression had a profound effect on me. It became clear that simple weapons and networking with like-minded individuals were efficient means of countering the enemy. As a result, geniusthingks unintentionally gained a section dedicated to Ukraine, providing advice both on the battlefield and for long-term perspectives aiming to integrate Russia into European structures and liberate its people.

Environmental concerns also hold significant importance for us. We are involved in redesigning mass-transport train traffic for high-speed transportation on an interstate level and designed a people mover on an inner-city level, and we have developed our own electric mini-car, a 3-seater side-by-side vehicle. Our patented hot liquid-forming technology allows for automated thick plastic shell production in just 2 minutes. The car’s sandwich structure includes a rigid aluminium tube cage. We plan to create a steering wheel-free, drive-by-wire joystick pedal-free prototype as soon as we secure a suitable investor to explore our patents for our citeeecar (www.citeeecar.com).

On a global scale, I firmly believe that the world does not have an energy problem; rather, we have not yet explored the depths of potential energy sources, literally speaking. That’s why I propose harnessing Nadir Power, a concept involving the exploitation of the nuclear power plant deep within our blue marble´s belly. By evaporating stone down to ca. 10 miles, we can loop and harness supercritical water (> 221 bar & 374°C), which holds tremendous potential that is fed by quite conventional turbines.

At geniusthingks, our “marketing” approach remains consistent: our products must be so exceptional that everyone concerned feels the need to have them; otherwise, they hold no value for us. We are fortunate to have many engineers eager to contribute without financial compensation, driven by the desire to be part of something meaningfully larger than what individuals can achieve alone. I encourage anyone with good intentions and intellect to join us on this journey.

Being a role model, both as a father and the CEO of this brain-driven idea factory, requires me to freely share my ideas to stimulate discussions that refine them into practical and useful products. I believe that the knowledge-shifting power of the internet democratizes and redefines values, and the energy provided by Nadir Power can strengthen our path towards eliminating geopolitical inefficiencies.

Geniusthingks.com serves as our platform to showcase meaningful ideas and technologies. We aspire to become a publicly traded company in the future, leveraging our valuable patents across various fields to add reputation. If you are an investor interested in realizing any of our patents, please feel free to contact me directly at markus@geniusthingks.com.

Embracing Design Thinking: Insights from a Stranger Interview

I recently approached a fellow student at our university — a thoughtful guy studying engineering. I asked him, “What does design thinking mean to you, and how do you think it could apply to your life or future career?” His response revealed some profound insights.

He paused for a moment, clearly reflecting on the question. “For me, design thinking is all about empathy,” he said. “You need to truly understand the people you’re designing for. It’s not just about creating something cool; it’s about solving real problems for real people.”

As he spoke, I could see his passion. He continued, “In my future projects, whether it's an app or a product, I want to make sure I’m not just guessing what users want. I want to engage with them, hear their stories, and build solutions that resonate with their needs.”

Then he shared something that really struck me. “You know, the iterative process is so important. It’s okay to fail and try again. Every failure teaches you something new.” His confidence in learning from mistakes highlighted a crucial mindset for any entrepreneur.

“What if we used design thinking to create an app that helps students manage stress? Something that analyzes their habits and suggests personalized self-care strategies?” His eyes lit up as he explained. “Imagine an app that integrates with your schedule, tracks your study patterns, and reminds you to take breaks or try mindfulness exercises. It could really change how we handle academic pressure.”

That idea resonated with me. It wasn't just about building a useful tool; it was about fostering well-being in a high-pressure environment. “A stress-management app,” I echoed, picturing its impact on our campus community.

He emphasized that design thinking is not just about innovation but also about collaboration. “Working with others brings in different perspectives that can lead to better solutions,” he mentioned. “In group projects, we can create more impactful designs by combining our strengths.”

We discussed how design thinking applies to various fields, from tech to healthcare, emphasizing the need for adaptability. “The world is changing so fast,” he said. “Being a lifelong learner is essential. The skills you acquire today may not be relevant tomorrow, especially in tech.”

After our conversation, I felt inspired. It made me realize that design thinking goes beyond traditional entrepreneurship. It focuses on empathy, creativity, and collaboration, and is a strong tool for creating real change in the world.

Entrepreneurs who embrace design thinking can create solutions that not only meet market demands but also enhance the lives of others. As this student demonstrated, the combination of user-centered design and innovative thinking can lead to ideas that truly matter.

Regret can hurt. I've thought about that statement all weekend long. Because the powerful truth is, it does. Marshall Goldsmith in his book entitled Triggers, discusses the various things that hold us back from making changes (mainly ourselves) even when we really want too. We know, I know, what that feels like; I didn't like that feeling but I let it take up residency for far too long until one day I just had enough. So, I changed and evicted most all regrets from my life. FREEDOM finally! Practice living in ways that are in alignment with what's right. Maintain good habits and self disciple. When I learned that is was easier to change (although painfully uncomfortable) than to live with the pain of regret, everything changed exponentially. What would your life look like with less regret? . . . . @coachgoldsmith #changingbehaviors #noregrets #environmentaltriggers #psychologicaltriggers #meaningfulchange #lastingchange #takeresponsibility #bewhoyouwanttobe #wehaveachoice #youhaveachoice #triggers #changebehavior #resultsdriven (at Delaware)

Co-production Network for Wales - making it happen!

Co-production is a transformative approach to public services enabling citizens and professionals to work together in equal and reciprocal relationships. Launched earlier this year, Judith Nubold and Mark John-Williams are the faces of the exciting new Co-production Network for Wales. Here they tell us about the project and their first weeks on the job.  

Introducing the Co-production Network for Wales

Many people in Wales are working towards making co-production the approach to public services design and delivery in Wales. The Network is a result of their contributions. It is a partnership between Co-production Wales and WCVA and the project host Cartrefi Cymru. The Big Lottery Wales are providing funding for 3 years. We as Network staff are there to support and facilitate the work of the network members. The Network was formally launched and celebrated in Welshpool in May and we started our posts in August (Mark) and September (Judith).  

Getting started

Our first weeks in our jobs have been very enjoyable and busy, we have been out and about at events and meetings a lot, building relationships with as many of the lovely co-pro people in North, Mid and South Wales as we can and learning so much every step of the way. We have had the opportunity to engage with diverse groups about our work from practitioners and students to various citizen groups. And this is just the start of our journey with the Co-production Network!

The ultimate aim of the project is a member-led network and the three-year funding from the Big Lottery will support us to create a vibrant, inclusive and sustainable network for a Wales where everyone is valued as a contributor to the common good. One of our priorities at the moment is to set up the communication channels: We are tweeting at @copronetwales and are looking into creating a presence on Facebook and LinkedIn. We are also working with designers to create branding and eventually a fully interactive website. While all of this is being developed, the best way of connecting with us is via email and signing up to our mailing list.  

Co-producing a community of practice

We are strongly committed to working co-productively in our roles as Network Staff and this takes time and needs ongoing questioning, but it is also a very creative process that is immensely rewarding. Thanks to being connected to thousands of individual supporters and hundreds of organisations across Wales, we both feel inspired and grateful for the chance to work with people in this way.

During the next weeks and months, we will co-organise events with our membership all across Wales and these will be opportunities to meet up, share learning and initiate projects together. With Spice and WCVA we co-hosted the #MeaningfulChange event on the 11 November in North Wales and similar events will be organised in Mid and South Wales in the spring. There will also be theme-based events on topics such as loneliness and respite care. If you have an idea for an event, please contact us.

This is a diagram of our four workstreams. There are also opportunities to work with us more closely in workstream groups: Community of Practice, Evidence Base, Co-productive Practice and Co-production Context. If that sounds like you or you would like to know more, please get in touch.

Thanks and acknowledgements

We are grateful for the support that we have received from the project host Cartrefi Cymru and its partners WCVA and Co-production Wales. We would also like to thank everyone who has contacted us to offer support and all people who have contributed to make this happen. And many thanks to the Big Lottery for funding us for the next three years.
