Ryan Gill is the CEO of Communo, a curated, membership-based community of

carefully vetted marketing, creative and digital professionals who give and get work

within a sharing economy.

He is the co-founder and past president of Cult Collective, an international engagement

agency, and co-founder of The Gathering, a world-class annual summit that brings

together some of the top CMOs, biggest brands and 1,000 delegates to the mountain

resort town of Banff, Alberta.

Ryan is a thought leader on the sharing economy and was a featured speaker at the

2018 SXSW conference, BC AMA Future of Marketing Panel, Creative Mornings

Vancouver, and the Loeb NYC Speakers Series. He’s interviewed regularly about

entrepreneurial life, the gig /sharing economy and how the “little guy” can win. 



Gill has published two books: "Community Inc" - a guidebook for creative entrepreneurs, and "Fix:

Break The Addiction that’s Killing Brands".

Ryan got his start in digital marketing and his first company, Suitcase Interactive, was a

consistent best digital agency award winner. His tenacity and forward thinking also led

him, personally, to being awarded a coveted place on the auspicious 30 under 30 list.

Over a decade ago, he founded Project Smile, a charitable initiative that sees he and

his employees make an annual service trip to over a dozen impoverished communities

outside of Mazatlan, Mexico. Most importantly, he’s a husband and father of two little

girls. You can follow Ryan on his social channels @RyanGillShares, where he shares
