The
Solopreneur
Ecosystem.

Built From Firsthand
Observations.

The term 1099 comes from the IRS classification for independent contractors. It's not just a tax status, but a global mindset. It represents a world where workers are independent business entities, and companies are networks of temporary projects.

In January of 2000, Greg established the 1099 Nation to track the macroeconomic shift toward a mandatory project-based economy.

Over a 25-year period he has traveled across 86 countries. To date, his research has taken him to 44 US states plus Washington, D.C., Canada, every island in the Caribbean, and the Philippines. Greg's work also spans all of Central America, 10 countries in South America, Ireland, the United Kingdom, Spain, India, Pakistan, Libya, Yemen, and 85% of Africa, including dual visits to both Egypt and Morocco.

The 1099 Nation empowers solopreneurs to thrive in today's global, project-based economy.
