Statesman-Scholar at the Intersection of AI and Public Good.”

Bio: Martin Robert Genter Jr. is a biracial American policy strategist and civic entrepreneur whose life bridges centuries of heritage and realms of expertise. Descended from both a Plantagenet king and an enslaved Virginian, he embodies a legacy of bridging divides to forge progress. Martin has leveraged his classical education and moral passion in modern arenas – from leading UNICEF advocacy on Capitol Hill to winning a landslide primary as a Michigan state senate nominee.

Today, he channels this unique background into tech-powered solutions for humanity’s toughest challenges. Martin is the founder of Project Prometheus, a groundbreaking initiative using artificial intelligence to dismantle human trafficking networks, and co-founder of the Apollo Project to end child poverty through data-driven policy “moonshots.” He also heads Transatlantic Press, an AI-assisted publishing house that produces works like his forthcoming book The Ancient Greek Way – blending ancient wisdom with contemporary policy insights.

A graduate of George Washington University and the Harvard Kennedy School, Martin combines rigorous policy training with hands-on tech skills, holding an advanced certificate in AI Strategy from MIT. He is an active member of the Sons of the American Revolution and The Plantagenet Society, reminders of an ancestry that fuels his commitment to unity and justice. Whether crafting strategies at the United Nations or building digital tools for social impact, Martin R. Genter Jr. stands out as a “statesman-scholar” – fusing empathy, intellect, and innovation to lead in the public interest.
