Portrait of Cyril Frémont
    Founder and CEO, internet.Best

    Cyril Frémont

    Cyril Frémont is the founder and CEO of internet.Best. He leads the company's thesis that the naming layer of the internet is being rewritten in 2026 for an AI-mediated world and the creator economy, and that infrastructure carrying meaning (a superlative registry, a video-first builder and a multi-model AI platform) is immunity against commoditization.

    He authored the company's vision paper, The Naming Revolution, and led its application in the ICANN 2026 round for .socialmedia, on which it is the sole applicant.

    That thesis rests on assets he acquired and built. In 2018 he acquired .Best, operated by Best TLD Pty Ltd under an ICANN registry agreement. He founded web.Best, a cinematic video-first website builder, and ai.Best, which consolidates every leading AI model into a single subscription. He also runs an entrepreneurs community covering AI, technology and business strategy, with more than 30,000 members.

    A serial entrepreneur based in Paris, Cyril was named among the 100 French entrepreneurs of the web and among the 20 best CEOs of the year in 2022. He has taken part in three IPOs: Intershop (Neuer Markt / NASDAQ), Ariba (NASDAQ) and Sidetrade (Euronext Paris).
