Dear All, Regrettably the event has passed but certainly other key events to look forward to is the upcoming APRICOT and APrIGF which will be held in Fukuoka, Japan and Macau, China respectively. Sadly there was no recording as you had to be on site but you can follow the #PTC15 or #IGF With every best wish, Sala On Fri, Jan 23, 2015 at 5:36 PM, Vish विशारद PYC <virat.surya@gmail.com> wrote:

Dear All,

Firstly apologies for the cross posting. I would like to invite you to the Pacific Telecommunication Council 15 Conference's Executive Roundtable on Internet Governance which is being held in Coral Room 2 at The Hilton, Hawaiian Village from 4pm till 5pm Honolulu time.

You can follow the twitter hashtag #PTC15 #IGF

Session Description is as follows:

Executive Insight Roundtable 10: Internet Governance In 2005, the UN-sponsored World Summit on the Information Society defined Internet governance as "the development and application by governments, the private sector and civil society, in their respective roles, of shared principles, norms, rules, decision-making procedures, and programs that shape the evolution and use of the Internet." The Internet is expanding exponentially. The Internet Governance Forum mandate from the United nations ends in 2015. Though there is no sign that the future of the IGF is in danger, so far there is no word from the UN asking for input on the renewal of IGF. In early 2014, the U.S. government announced plans to relinquish its historic stewardship over the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA), which is operated by ICANN, to the global multi-stakeholder Internet community when its contract with ICANN expires in September 2015.Many experts believe this change may set the stage for broader changes in other areas of Internet governance, such as intellectual property rights and cybersecurity.

Who is responsible for Internet governance among the different stakeholder groups? What are issues that may disrupt the roles of existing stakeholders? How should consensus on key principles or outcomes be reached for solutions that benefit the global Internet rather than special interests? How should market-specific challenges or issues that are particular to a local community be approached for the global Internet to continue its innovative contributions? These are just some of the challenging questions around Internet Governance that will be discussed in this executive insight roundtable.

Moderator: Steven Smith, Associate VP, IT Technology & Deputy CIO, University of Hawaii, USA Panelists: David Conrad, CTO, Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) John Curran, President and CEO, American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN) Paul Wilson, Director General, Asia Pacific Network Information Centre (APNIC) With every best wish, Sala
