NOWHERE SUMMIT 2024
📍Zuleta, Ecuador.

Co-hosted with Alex Petkas and Ben Wilson, creators of The Cost of Glory (@plutarchpodcast) and How to Take Over the World (@httotw), we brought together 25+ thought leaders, writers, and founders to explore the theme: “How Empires Are Built.”

Our second edition carried deep historical and cultural weight, hosted at @hotelhaciendazuletaecuador: a historic colonial-era estate and former home of Ecuadorian President Galo Plaza Lasso, now operating as a luxury hotel.

Over four days, we blended hot air balloon flights over the Andes, guided visits to Incan ruins, horseback riding through historic landscapes, immersive cultural experiences supported by local Ecuadorian brands, and daily fireside conversations — culminating with our flagship visit to Ecuador’s Presidential Palace, followed by an intimate closing celebration.

Exceptional people going places. 🌎
This is how empires are built.

NOWHERE SUMMIT 2023
📍Quito, Ecuador.

We brought together 45 founders, investors, YC alumni, Thiel Fellows, and creators from diverse backgrounds at @lapalma.ec for an intimate, founder-led experience centered on entrepreneurship and connection.

Over four days, we cooked Ecuadorian dishes live on national television, salsa danced, immersed ourselves in the “Andean Experience” alongside local artists and brands, joined a panel and networking gathering with 200+ entrepreneurs, investors, and government officials — and even shared tea inside the Presidential Palace.

Words can’t fully capture what this beginning felt like, but luckily the amazing team at @17.21agencia did.

We’re exceptional people going places. 🌎
Are you joining the next one?

Traveled to one of the most unique places I have ever been. Took the famous Jadrolinija ferry from Split Croatia across the Adriatic Sea to the port city of Ancona Italy. After lugging our bags up more stairs than antipated just to get views of the harbor, we rented a car and drove down about an hour to the small local town of Colonnella. We stayed at a generationally owned, family boutique hotel called Bellavista seated on a beautiful mountaintop which really did live up to its name. It was amazing to experience the genuine Italian generosity, hospitality, and east Italian culture. Thanks to @dimarc_m and his family for hosting and sharing their traditions with us

WE’RE GOING PLACES! 🌎

Take a look at the view we had from our Presidential Palace visit. We enjoyed a jaw-dropping look at Quito’s colonial downtown city, before heading back to normal life.

This was the only way we could end a four-day experience alongside a group of so many exceptional people: with an exceptional view.

A HUGE thank you to @marissapendola and @presidenciaec for making this possible. 🔥

We’ll see you again, soon! 🚀

This was Ecuador’s Presidential palace. 🇪🇨

We were part of an exclusive tour of Carondelet that ended with a coffee break in the main room. It was inspiring to walk through the same spaces where thousands of political figures have made history.

We finished our visit by walking through Quito’s downtown streets and enjoying our last lunch together.

A HUGE thank you to @marissapendola that helped us make this possible. 🔥

Meet the people behind NOWHERE SUMMIT 2024. 🔥

These are the faces who joined exceptional people in the middle of the Andes, in an experience like never before.

The premise for our summit was: ‘How are Empires Built?’, so over the span of our four-day event, we curated experiences that led us to a clear answer.

Just as @alexpetkas said: ‘Empires are built with networks’.

We dedicated our summit to fueling connection because we believe that together, we form a greater whole. 🚀

Thank you to the exceptional team that helped us make this event a reality, as well as all brands that came together for this to dream come true.

Finally, thank you to @marissapendola and @presidenciaec for opening the doors to Carondelet. We were delighted with so much beauty and history intertwined in one place. 🇪🇨

Together, we will continue taking you places. 🌎

(Trust us, that second picture shows how serious we are. 😂)

It’s almost time to step out of NOWHERE and go back to real life. 🌎

There’s always a bittersweet feeling when our last dinner comes, because it means it’s almost time to say goodbye…

But don’t worry, we still have one more day to go! 🔥
