viktor saad​

Founder, Experience Institute. What risk would you take to learn, grow, or change something in your world? In 2012, Victor embarked upon an unconventional journey to design his Masters through twelve experiences in twelve months – an endeavor he and his friends entitled The Leap Year Project. His discoveries led him to begin exploring new forms of higher education through a new initiative called Experience Institute. But, more importantly, it helped him grapple with the roles that comfort, learning, and panic play throughout our lives.
BOOK VIKTOR

MEET VIKTOR SAAD

Viktor has been called a designer, strategist, and connector; but really, He's just an Egyptian-American who calls Chicago home, and believes that relationships are the most powerful engines for change. Through The Leap Year Project, a self-made Master’s Program and community project, Viktor worked with an array of remarkable companies and individuals around the world. He staged his graduation at TEDxWindyCity, co-produced a book about taking leaps, and recently launched Experience Institute, joining forces with industry leaders from Leo Burnett, Stanford’s d.school, and i.c. Stars to design a new type of higher education rooted in real-world experience.

Two years ago, Victor became curious about learning practical ways to improve the world. After researching business schools, he decided the options didn't fit, so he created his own format of 12 experiences in 12 months, centered around design, business and social change. The project developed into a small community of amazing people taking risks to create change in their own lives and communities.

These mini-apprenticeships have given Viktor a deeper understanding of the theory behind good business and social change, while also teaching him through practical experience the adaptability necessary to make things work in our new economy. He believes this type of experience-based education provides an invaluable learning experience, costs far less than current models, and can equip individuals to face today’s problems with an inventive spirit. Now, Viktor is building bridges to great individuals, companies, and organizations to create a new type of Higher Education based on experience.

​Over the past two years, Viktor has shared the stories behind Leap Year Project and Experience Institute with groups of all shapes and sizes. These events have taken place at Google, Apple, Stanford’s d.school, Techweek, CUSP, Creative Mornings, Misfit Conference, EPIC, SEEK Conference, and multiple TEDx gatherings. They have been opportunities to inspire audiences with insights and lessons surrounding risk-taking, collaborating across industries, and rethinking learning.
