The Venus Project corporation was incorporated by Jacque Fresco in 1995 to advocate a theoretical economic system, what it calls a resource-based economy. The Venus Project was founded in 1995 as a for-profit corporation by Fresco and Roxanne Meadows in Venus, Florida.

As of 2011 Fresco lectured and gave tours of the Venus Project location.

The documentary-style films Zeitgeist: Addendum (2008) and Zeitgeist: Moving Forward (2011) focus on ideas from the Venus Project though the two groups split from each other as far as supporting one another after the movies mentioned were made.
