Quest Network produces expeditions and explorations that help solve the world's most important mysteries. Through real-time technologies, we empower audiences to participate in the discovery process.

Our education programs commit to generating curiosity, challenging children, and giving them control over their learning environment. It gives teachers an easy-to-use vehicle to strengthen students' 21st century skills of collaboration, problem-solving, critical thinking, and communication while meeting state and national standards. Further, Quest Network commits to national television production values and high-profile endeavors that enhance people's sensitivity to the world around them.

Quest Network was founded by explorer and Emmy Award-winning producer Dan Buettner, who has produced 15 interactive expeditions. Previous Quests have generated over two billion general media impressions and garnered an educational audience of 12 million students in 80,000 classrooms.
