PROJECTS
Global Health Projects.
Access to clean drinking water
Hurricanes, earthquakes and other natural disasters can contaminate drinking water supplies increasing the chance of intestinal disease, dehydration and death. Even in the US contamination in poor counties is becoming more common.
Drug trafficking
Drug abuse is a global problem, with illicit manufacturing growing around the world. Tracking the movement of illegal drugs, from origin to port or border is a pressing health and security issue.
Essential drugs accessability
Vital medications like insulin are often scarce in developing nations, despite their wide availability in developed nations. What responsibility does the West have in ensuring generic-life saving medications are available globally?
Pandemic
Some experts claim the biggest threats to humanity are infectious diseasses and viruses. COVID shut down the world for nearly two years, crippling economies and killing millions. How can we be better prepared for the next pandemic?
Preventing malaria infections
Introducing genetically modified mosquitos is one proposal which could eradicate vector-borne diseases like malaria, but the potential fallout could be disastrous if it doesn’t go as planned. Is there a better way to protect against these vector-borne diseases?
Tele-medicine
With the advent of internet facilitated video conferencing, connecting globally with experts has never been easier. Access to healthcare is limited in developing nations, questioning if tele-medicine could be the key to bridging access to medicine.

The Minteer BROTHERS
Our Story
Founders, Nick and Chris Minteer have trained at some of the top Universities in the world and started one of the fastest growing companies in the United States, generating over $10M with no investors, all while they were still in school. They took an idea that started in their parents garage to a global powerhouse. The Minteer Academy is based on the principals the Minteer brothers learned working together and with their team. Nick, the business mind, trained at University College London, and Chris, the product mind, a PhD Scientist, trained at University of Cambridge and Yale University. The Academy takes the same perspectives which made Nick and Chris so effective as co-founders and applies it in a real-world course, where ambitious teens have the opportunity to take on big problems through either an entrepreneurial or research lens.
