Co-creating the 21st-century vessel
The Wonder of the World project is entering a strategic pre-development phase.
At the crossroads of technological innovation, environmental sustainability, and operational excellence, we are issuing an official call for partnerships and the mobilization of multidisciplinary talent to shape this unique and visionary endeavor.
1. Strategic Partnerships Sought
We invite committed and visionary stakeholders to collaborate in the following areas:
2. Building a High-Level Team
In parallel with technological and industrial partnerships, we are actively structuring our core team by seeking strategic expertise in the following fields:
Our structuring priorities include:
Eight Years of Passion for an Unprecedented Journey
Since July 2017, more than 40,000 hours of reflection, 166 drafts, and 8 550 hours of digital design have shaped this exceptional project. Eight relentless years of dedication have been invested in creating a monumental space spanning 3 million square meters.
Every detail has been meticulously crafted: the aesthetics of the settings, the harmony of colors, the ingenuity of the design, and the performance of the equipment. Far beyond a technical feat, this project is a true invitation to experience something unique and unforgettable.
This total commitment—marked by a personal time investment estimated at $3.5 million, reflects the deep dedication of the visionary behind this extraordinary creation.
A Realistic Vision Aligned with Global Trends
Despite its scale, the 3 million square meters announced for WOW are far from an architectural fantasy. This project follows in the footsteps of the world’s largest developments, such as Abraj Al Bait in Saudi Arabia (1.5 million m²) and The Venetian in Macau (700,000 m²).
Future hotel complexes are increasingly embracing this approach, merging accommodation, entertainment, culture, and innovation within integrated, multifunctional ecosystems. This global trend confirms that projects of such magnitude are not only feasible, but also perfectly aligned with the evolving expectations of international tourism.
Designer Profile: A Pioneer Spirit Driving Innovation
A licensed Canadian commercial pilot with an active certification, the creator of Wonder of the World brings decades of experience in air charter operations and the development of exclusive tourism destinations.
Born into a family deeply rooted in the tourism, aviation, and maritime industries, he grew up immersed in these worlds, gaining early insight into their challenges and untapped potential.
With proven expertise in architectural design, mechanical engineering, and aeronautical technologies, he now leads a visionary project that reflects his career path, passion, and forward-thinking perspective.
Renowned for his pioneering spirit in both tourism and aviation, he has distinguished himself through bold, groundbreaking achievements, always guided by a desire to innovate and shape the future.
When Technology Comes Aboard
It’s important to note that my knowledge of naval construction remains limited. That’s why I’ve consulted renowned engineers and naval architects to illuminate the essential technical aspects of this complex field.
According to them, “Nothing escapes today’s technology, especially artificial intelligence (AI). Everything becomes possible, provided the necessary resources are committed.” This insight is particularly relevant when integrating advanced systems into environments as demanding as shipbuilding.
The estimated construction cost ranges between $10 and $20 billion, depending on the level of technological sophistication selected. For comparison, the Burj Khalifa, the tallest tower in the world, required an investment of approximately $1.5 billion. Given the advanced technology and absolute luxury envisioned, I estimate the total cost of the Wonder of the World could reach $50 billion. However, this figure remains a high-end projection, as the project is designed to be self-financing over time, thanks to its integrated economic model and its exceptional ability to attract an international clientele.
The immediate need is not financial, but structural and strategic: It involves forming a consortium of international shipyards, where each partner contributes its expertise and cutting-edge technologies. Since the concept is ahead of its time, this collaborative approach is essential to meet the unprecedented technical challenges it presents. It will allow us to optimize timelines, control costs, and deliver a level of innovation never before seen in the industry.
WOW is not an alternative. It’s the benchmark.
From the very first rivet, the ship will be fully booked. Not for a season, nor for a few years, but for two decades. Every cabin, every square meter, down to the last centimeter, will be reserved, desired, coveted.
This project doesn’t sell a product. It offers a vision. A vision where exclusivity is a certainty, and prestige is no longer claime, it’s declared.
WOW won’t just be a success, it will be a manifesto. And one day, millions of voices will be able to say: “Me too, I’ve been there.”
We sincerely thank you for your attention. The project is now ready to enter the industrial validation phase. We remain fully available for any technical, financial, or strategic meetings.
Additionally, a presentation of the project's second phase is already available. We invite you to review it to gain a more complete and structured overview of the next steps in development.
With our kindest regards,
The Wonder of the World Team
