Who's behind IQ² Australia?
IQ² Oz is an initiative of St James Ethics Centre and John Rothnie-Jones.
The initiative is based on the highly successful debate program, Intelligence Squared (IQ²) which began in 2002 in London. It is the brainchild of John Gordon, media entrepreneur, and Jeremy O’Grady, Editor-in-Chief of The Week.
Since being established, IQ² has spread from London to New York - and now to Sydney. On both sides of the Atlantic, Intelligence Squared attracts a sell-out crowd of opinion leaders to each event.
The executive producer of IQ² Australia is the Gold Walkley Award producer, Deb Richards, a former producer at ABC News and Current Affairs, who has selected the extraordinary panels of expert speakers and moderators for the debates.
IQ² Australia is produced in partnership with The Sydney Morning Herald and is supported by the City of Sydney.
