Josh Adler is a Canadian entrepreneur, writer, and philanthropist born in Toronto, known for founding Project Hyperaware, which advocates for ADHD awareness. Diagnosed with ADHD, Adler faced challenges in traditional educational systems and pursued mentorships in various fields. He later enrolled at the University of Toronto but dropped out to follow entrepreneurial ventures in product consultancy, digital infrastructure, and systems consulting, among others. His work focuses on developing tools for individuals who struggle with conventional educational systems. Adler's professional interests lie at the crossroads of systems design, performance optimization, and advanced technology. He engages in projects across product development, bioscience research, and experimental robotics, many in stealth mode, unified by aiding neurodivergent and nontraditional users. Through his philanthropic work, especially in Kenya, he promotes understanding of neurodiversity. He also writes essays on topics such as neurodiversity, resilience, and systems thinking.
