Intelligence Venture

What is intelligence?

Is there anything unique about human intelligence? What if the story of intelligence does not culminate with us? Is the world of intelligences vaster, more varied, and more wonderful than we ever imagined? Might intelligence be written into the fabric of reality itself?

Starting in 2026, the John Templeton Foundation will award over $60 million in grants focused on such questions across our six funding areas.
