About Us

DQlogo2DaVinci Quest is a for profit, social enterprise dedicated to solving the Top 10 World Problems through innovation. We are engaged in the design, development and conduct of a series of innovation contests.

Goals & Objectives:

Our goal is to mitigate or eliminate major problems.  Within the section on Solving Problems, more information on our thinking is contained within Problems, Contest Process, Innovation by Objective, Crowdsourcing, Incentives and Innovation Support.

We seek to give you a voice in a discussion of innovation and world problems.  You may post comments within our Blog. We will be holding innovation contests on different subjects related to major problems.

To learn more each contest, go to our section on Contests. If you have a possible solution to one of the problems we are trying to solve, we invite you to post it under Solutions.

If you are looking for more information about any of the problems we are trying to solve, please look in our Library.

We invite anyone to compete in one of our Contests as a Team.  Please go to the individual Contest under Teams to see the rules and entry application for that Contest. Each of our Contests is supported by many Sponsors.

A city acts as the Economic Development Sponsor and host for each Contest.  A large company acts as the Prize Sponsor and gives it's name to each Contest.  A combination of individuals, businesses, government agencies and nonprofit organizations may act as a Team Sponsor for a Team in any Contest.  For specific information on becoming a sponsor, please look in the appropriate section by Contest.

All of our work is supported by an international community comprised of our Members.  For more information on the benefits of being a Member, please go to the section on Memberships.

To develop innovation as a life skill, we are coordinating educational programs and micro-contests in cities around the world.  For more information on this program, please go to Innovation Life Skills.

As a social enterprise, a portion of our profits will be donated to selected charities.  For more informatino on our giving program, please see Charities.

Within our Store, you will find information on a variety of products and services related to our Contests.
