I had the incredible opportunity to meet Professor Chris Imafidon—often called the 'Patriarch of Britain’s Brainiest Family'—during the Born 2 Lead Conference at Corpus Christi College, University of Cambridge. From the moment I stepped into the conference, I was excited to learn from someone who has guided so many youths to reach extraordinary achievements.
Professor Imafidon is a multi-award-winning educator, multiple Guinness World Record certificate holder, and a leading figure in technology, AI, and mentoring. Hearing him speak felt like stepping into a whole new world of possibilities; he shared insights on artificial intelligence, leadership, and how to unlock our full potential. One of my favourite parts was learning about the #AIGeniusFormula—his innovative approach to using AI tools to boost creativity and learning.
I left the event feeling unbelievably motivated. Meeting someone who has mentored countless students—many of whom have achieved record-breaking successes—reminded me that no dream is too big when you have the right guidance and determination. I’m so thankful to Professor Imafidon for his time, advice, and the inspiration he provided.
I can’t wait to put his wisdom into practice in my own journey as an author and a future leader. If you ever get the chance to learn from Professor Chris Imafidon, I highly recommend it—you just might find yourself aiming even higher than before!
