Chris Guillebeau

In 2011, Chris founded a global gathering for remarkable people of all kinds. He named it the World Domination Summi . I remember when this first launched. The buzz surrounding it was so huge; much larger in my community than many marketing conferences.

The first event was huge hit, despite operating at a loss of $30’000. At the 2012 event, they gave the attendees $100 to put towards their own projects.

In 2018, the team announced that the 10 year anniversary event in 2020 would be the final WDS conference. 

The only other recap Chris did was WDS 2013: A Partial (and Impartial) Recap. The following years summarized the audiences recaps.

You can see a some of the videos from the events at the World Domination Summit Youtube channel.
