InterestsTED Conference
DescriptionAccording to itself also known as the "The World Domination, Corporate Cubism, and Alien Mind Control Dinner". Jeffrey Epstein was a big backer.

From 1984 until at least 2015, the Edge Foundation held an annual dinner, which eventually became known as the Billionaires' dinner.

Own words

In 2004, Edge wrote "The dinner, which for the past few years has been held during the annual TED Conference, always has a name attached to it. It began in 1984 as "The Millionaires' Dinner" (thanks to a page one article in The Wall Street Journal) in a Las Vegas Mexican restaurant during COMDEX Eventually it evolved to "The Digerati Dinner"; to "The World Domination, Corporate Cubism, and Alien Mind Control Dinner", to "The Billionaires' Dinner". Last year we tried "The Science Dinner". Everyone yawned. So this year, it's back to the money-sex-power thing with "The Billionaires' Dinner". I realize that "Billionaire" is tired and very '90s, but the name worked for this year's dinner."[1]
