About this Event
Join us for an insightful, multi-layered conversation with Femi Fadugba.
Femi is the author of The Upper World and The Mirror World, a YA sci-fi duology weaving quantum physics into coming-of-age stories set across Peckham, Oxford and Benin. The books were acquired in a fifteen-way auction by Penguin Random House UK and HarperCollins USA and have since been published in Germany, Italy and Brazil, among other territories, while Netflix has acquired the film adaptation rights for The Upper World, with Daniel Kaluuya attached to star and produce.
About Femi Fadugba: Femi studied at the University of Pennsylvania and Oxford University, where he co-authored a paper on quantum spin amplification published in Physical Review Letters. He now lives in Boston, where he teaches elementary school math, builds products, and serves as founder and CEO of ShepherdXR, an edtech company creating immersive VR and web-based math learning tools for neurodivergent students.
