Sheyene Gerardi Foundation is an American non-profit organization founded by Sheyene Gerardi, in 2007, originally in Venezuela but re-organized in New York.[1] Based at 276 Fifth Avenue, New York City, the SGF is dedicated to harnessing the potential of emerging technologies like AI and space exploration to address global challenges. Through research, education, and outreach initiatives, SGF fosters ethical and equitable solutions in areas such as economic development, environmental sustainability, and social justice.[2][3][4]

Agenda[change | change source]

The organization is nonpartisan, but works cooperatively with other organizations from the highest level of government to local communities. In 2022, the foundation expanded its activities to include support for policy, economic development, civil rights, and the environment, among other areas. In an oral presentation on 12 Dec 2023 the Sheyene Gerardi said:

  • My motivations to be here today are driven by two compelling forces: the immense potential of AI and the urgent need for ethical and fair distribution. In the same way, space exploration offers great potential for economic growth; we can create industries in space, harnessing resources and developing technologies that benefit humanity. I believe these intersecting fields hold the key to solving most of the global challenges we face, from economic inequality to resource scarcity.[5]

As of Jan 2024, the foundation is organized into four program areas under president Sheyene Gerardi, who sets strategic priorities, monitors results, and facilitates relationships with key partners.

  • Research and Development Division[6][7]
  • Social Impact and Governance Division
  • Outreach & Education Division
  • Mission Operations Manager Division

In addition to her management positions at the firm, Ms. Gerardi herself led lobbying and public relation efforts for the organization.

In 2018, it partnered with NASA to bring robotics competitions to South America, reaching communities across South America, the Middle East, and Europe. The program serves underprivileged students and helps them obtain employment. There are no fees to participate.[9][10][11]
