Domain Summit is an annual business-to-business (B2B) convention that serves as a premier gathering for professionals within the domain name industry. It convenes stakeholders from diverse sectors, including registrars, registries, technical service providers, domain investors, experts in domain name extensions (gTLDs and ccTLDs), hosting companies, domain resellers, auction platforms, brokers, escrow services, and others.
History
Originally launched in 2022 as the "London Domain Summit" (LDNS) by Helmuts Meskonis, the event garnered significant success in its inaugural year. Building upon this momentum, in 2023, the organizers elevated the event by relocating it from the award-winning Asian restaurant Yum-Sa to the prestigious Hilton London Metropole. Following the second summit in November 2023, the organizers acquired the domain name DomainSummit.com from Mike Mann and rebranded the event as "Domain Summit" to better reflect its global scope.
