WORLD.MINDS (known as ZURICH.MINDS until 2016) is a nonprofit foundation set up in 2008 by Rolf Dobelli with the goal to create "a bridge between the science, business and cultural communities".
WORLD.MINDS is composed of the not-for-profit WORLD.MINDS Foundation and WORLD.MINDS Management Ltd, the operational event management company that organizes and produces all symposia and events on behalf of the WORLD.MINDS Foundation. On 29 March 2022, Axel Springer acquired a majority stake in the event management company.
The Neue Zürcher Zeitung (NZZ) called WORLD.MINDS a "community of experts for experts" and described its annual meetings as "a salon for the 21st century".
