ICANN : Board Approves Singapore Hub Expansion

As part of its globalization strategy, ICANN established an Asia Pacific Hub in Singapore in August 2013, to better serve its regional stakeholders.

To further such globalization objectives, the ICANN Board has approved that the Singapore office will be moving into a larger space in FY16. The staff have identified and evaluated the location and cost of a suitable office facility. The targeted move-in date is 1 October 2015.

Over the past year, both Singapore and Istanbul offices have grown in terms of staff strength as well as functional support. There are currently 18 staff members based in Singapore providing a range of services such as registry and registrar services management, stakeholder engagement, contractual compliance and customer service support, as well as support functions such as operations, IT, communications, legal, finance and HR.

In Istanbul, there are 12 staff members also providing a range of services including registry and registrar services, contractual compliance, policy development support, communications and HR, and plans to hire a Customer Service Center role to support our globalization strategy to provide multi-lingual support.

This positions ICANN for long-term stability to continue our work to maintain a secure, stable and interoperable Internet, and cements the vision of having three global hubs to serve the global community.

NameJet announced recently that it has partnered with .CO.COM Registry, in order to offer 50 of the very best American city domains to the domain name aftermarket.

You can read the press release after the jump :

” NameJet, the world’s leading aftermarket domain name auction platform, has partnered with the .co.com Registry to make available over 50 domain names of some of the most recognizable cities in the United States. These highly desirable domains are being offered for auction with no reserve prices and include names like Chicago.co.com, Detroit.co.com, Orlando.co.com, Memphis.co.com, and Atlanta.co.com and many more.

This event follows a recent .co.com city domain auction on NameJet, which generated very solid results.

“These great .co.com names, are being offered with no reserve prices. City names are in high demand, and this is an opportunity to own a premier city domain at a fraction of what the .com would cost.” said Jonathan Tenenbaum, General Manager, NameJet.

The window to backorder these domains will begin to close on 6/19/2015, followed by private auctions for domains that have multiple bidders. Visit http://www.namejet.com/featuredauctions/codotcom to see the complete listing.”
