Rajiv Montgomery Noah (born 1973) is an Indian-American billionaire entrepreneur, scientist, and self-proclaimed prophet. He is best known for developing breakthrough synthetic womb technology (The Adi Pod™) and later building a self-sustaining biodome community called “Eden” in northern Ontario, Canada, where he predicted humanity would survive an impending global catastrophe.

Early Life and Education

Born in Kokta, Madhya Pradesh, India to an American engineer father and Indian mother, Noah’s early life was marked by tragedy when both his parents died in the 1984 Bhopal gas disaster. His father worked as an engineer at the Union Carbide India Limited plant and was killed in the initial gas leak, while his mother, who had been shopping at a nearby market, succumbed to exposure two days later. Following their deaths, 11-year-old Rajiv was sent to live with his aunt in Toronto, Canada, where he was raised in a Christian household while maintaining connections to his Hindu heritage.

Career and Innovations

Noah showed early aptitude for science and investment, making his first million before age 27 through strategic market investments. His most significant scientific breakthrough came with the development of The Adi Pod™, an artificial womb which successfully gestated human embryos to term. This technology gained worldwide attention but also sparked ethical debates about the nature of human reproduction.

In the early 2000s, Noah attempted to enter Canadian politics, briefly campaigning for the Senate on a platform of global unity and the dissolution of national borders. His political career was short-lived, though his views on worldwide governance and social restructuring would later influence his Eden project.

Following his departure from politics, Noah focused on expanding Eden Innovations' technological portfolio. In 2023, he unveiled the ArkhiveLink™ (commonly referred to as “Arkhive”), a revolutionary microbiotic transmitter delivered via ingestible capsules marketed through his newsletter. The microscopic device adheres to the stomach lining and transmits comprehensive biological data to Eden’s central database. While Noah claimed the technology would identify individuals with optimal survival potential for his Eden Project, the device faced intense scrutiny from regulatory bodies and bioethicists concerned about privacy implications and the unprecedented scale of biological data collection.

Eden Project

In 2019, Noah began construction on a massive biodome complex near Thunder Bay, Ontario, which he named “Eden.” The facility, built into Rabbit Mountain, features:

• A 35-acre dome covering surface structures

• Underground farming and living facilities

• Advanced solar power systems

• Self-sustaining ecosystems

• Extensive library and cultural preservation facilities

The project gained international attention when Noah successfully demonstrated the dome’s resilience by surviving direct bomb strikes during public testing. He claimed the structure could withstand “any conceivable assault.”

Prophetic Claims and Influence

Noah gained further notoriety through his monthly newsletter, which attracted approximately 700 million subscribers worldwide. He consistently warned of an impending global catastrophe and positioned Eden as humanity’s salvation. His newsletter is notable for being offered free of charge despite its massive reach and potential advertising value.

The “Reaping,” as Noah terms it, is his controversial plan to select and save 200 individuals chosen through an algorithm that assesses genetics, skills, and other factors he deems crucial for humanity’s survival.

Personal Life

Noah adopted the surname “Noah” in his youth, inspired by both Biblical scripture and his mother’s dying words. He is the father of twins, Daniel and Moriah, conceived through his synthetic womb technology using donor eggs. The children were born in a widely televised event on CNN that sparked global discussions about artificial gestation.

Philanthropy

Noah is known for extensive charitable work, particularly in northern Ontario where he has:

• Built homes for unhoused individuals

• Established support programs for Native populations

• Founded and funded a trade school

• Created employment opportunities with above-market wages

• Invested in local infrastructure and development
