The 2024 Domain Summit Conference is Underway in London with an International Crowd in Town for the Show

The 2024 Domain Summit conference got underway Monday (August 19 in London, England. The show, founded and produced by Helmuts Meskonis, will continue through Thursday morning at the Hilton Metropole Hotel. Opening day was devoted to a pair of casual functions that allowed attendees to catch up with old friends and get to know new ones. It began with a daytime off-site tour of the Team Internet offices in London where guests were welcomed by CEO Michael Riedl. That was followed by an evening networking party back at the Metropole that was hosted by IT.com Domains. Our friend Mark Ghoriafi, Premium Domain Broker at Sedo, is in London for the conference and he posted several photos that provide a nice peak into Monday's events.

conversations to break out at Team Internet HQ.

The Domain Summit agenda will continue to play out with two full business days and evening social events Tuesday and Wednesday, followed by a Farewell Breakfast and (weather permitting) a walk through Hyde Park Thursday morning.
