ESOTERIQ Society was founded by Masaaki Yamauchi to create his own personal collection of the highest IQ people in the world.
The name “ESOTERIQ” comes from the combination of the first six letters of the word “ESOTERIC” and the IQ component.
The number of letters before the IQ component of the society name (ESOTER, 6) is directly related to the six standard deviations above the mean required on an IQ performance for anyone to claim membership in the society.
This society is open for only people having “Esoteric level IQ performance” which imply “1/1,000,000,000” being equal to the six standard deviations above the mean on the normal distribution.
