Gifted Institute

What Gifted Institute does

Gifted Institute is a Danish private knowledge center (CVR: 44639246) headquartered in Dalmose, Denmark, specializing in the assessment, therapy, and education of gifted and twice-exceptional individuals across all age groups. Its core service portfolio includes psychological assessments using the proprietary World Game Test and standardized WISC-V testing, individualized therapy and counseling, year-round camps for gifted youth (priced 1,250-3,000 DKK per participant), online programs (Busy Brains, Hungry Brains, Boost), and membership access via the Gifted Children organization. The institute also serves a professional segment through MyBrain, supervision, courses, mentoring, and therapeutic method training for educators and practitioners.

The institute operates GI-lab as its internal research and development hub, conducting empirical data collection and contributing to international research networks on giftedness. Its testing practices received validation from the Danish Psychology Board (Psykolognævnet) in 2024/2025. Revenue is generated through professional services fees (assessments, therapy, supervision), one-time camp/program fees, and a recurring membership model. The company employs approximately 11 staff plus a network of external specialists and volunteers, with services delivered primarily at the Dalmose facility and via online programs within Denmark.

The business is anchored by founders Grith Tschorn and Johnnie Rasmussen (Authorized Psychologist), with go-to-market centered on direct-to-consumer delivery, free introductory interviews, content marketing, and a multi-channel presence (newsletter, Facebook, LinkedIn). Geographic expansion is signaled through international collaborator relationships, though service delivery remains Denmark-dominant.

Others

• European Council for High Ability (ECHA): Pan-European network advancing research and practice on high ability. Comparable to the institute's GI-lab international research and collaboration function rather than its clinical services.
• Hoagies' Gifted Education Page: Long-running online resource hub for parents and educators of gifted children. Comparable content marketing and community-building role, but information-focused rather than clinical.
• National Association for Gifted Children (NAGC): US professional association serving educators and parents of gifted children. Comparable community/association role for professionals but not a direct service provider.

Broad incumbents

• Center for Talented Youth (CTY) at Johns Hopkins: Large established player offering identification, online courses, and summer programs for gifted learners. Overlaps with assessment and enrichment but at significantly greater scale and broader scope.

Direct peers

• Duke Talent Identification Program (Duke TIP): Identifies academically gifted students and offers enrichment programs and research. Closely comparable focus on identification/testing and enrichment programming for gifted youth.
• Belin-Blank Center for Gifted Education and Talent Development: University-based center providing gifted identification (including above-level testing), counseling, and professional development. Comparable mix of assessment, family support, and educator training.
• Supporting Emotional Needs of the Gifted (SENG): US-based nonprofit focused on the social-emotional needs of gifted individuals, including 2e. Comparable emphasis on therapy, parent coaching, and professional education — overlapping with Gifted Institute's family and professional segments.
• Davidson Institute of Talent Development / Davidson Academy: Operates a school and support ecosystem dedicated to profoundly gifted and twice-exceptional youth in the US. Closely comparable mission (comprehensive services for gifted/2e populations) with greater scale.
• 2e Center for Research and Professional Development: Specializes specifically in twice-exceptional learners, offering professional development and resources for educators. Highly comparable 2e focus and professional training orientation.

Emerging players

• Mensa Denmark / Mensa International: Membership society for high-IQ individuals offering community, events, and educational programming. Adjacent to the Gifted Children membership concept and similarly serves gifted adults and families, but tests rather than assesses psychology of giftedness.
