Thanks all for your interest in ensuring the proposal for this outreach aligns with the mandate of the BC. This is such a unique opportunity for the BC to swell its ranks through engagements at this 4 day event asides the milage in publicity that would be generated for the BC. A hub in the city of Abuja - connected to main events at such a gathering of International repute as the IGF, coupled with opportunities for networking and engagement, free access to the Internet and coffee, including an opportunity to interact directly with businesses and learn about what Government intend to do in the coming year, guarantees a huge interest in participation and offers potentials for new BC recruits. To the questions posed; 1, MicroBoss a member of the BC is the host for this hub and had from inception aligned the hub to serve the interest of business. In collaboration with other BC colleagues residing in the city of Abuja, i would be managing the hub and we would give priority to the sessions serving the interest of business and the BC. 2, A large percentage of participants at the hub would be business and entrepreneurs owing to the fact that the organised private sector in the Abuja region is being contacted to ensure active participation. As a member of a few other coalitions like the Alliance for affordable Internet and ICT4SI, members from these strategic groups would be encouraged to attend and extend invitation to their network of partners and influence. A few selected businesses have been invited to speak to various topics of interest such as the GDPR, IDN and cyber security to encourage participation. 3, The BC would maximize its influence at this fora by ensuring that every opportunity that presents itself to promote the business constituency is fully utilized. Asides signage bearing the values of the BC, fact sheets on the BC would be made available to participants asides presentations by BC members. A dedicated computer system would be made available onsite (at the registration stand) to enable ease of access to the membership application page on the BC website, while the BC secretariat would be furnished with details of interested companies that would like to be contacted by the BC or subscribed to our newsletters. I am highly optimistic that this outreach would produce great results and solicit appreciable funding by the BC. Thanks, lawrence. On Mon, December 4, 2017 6:24 pm, Gabriela Szlak wrote:

Gabi – being creative, I might imagine that a “remote hub” could be a BC Outreach event – if:

1. BC member(s) were among the leaders and hosts; 2. Businesses were prominent among the hub attendees; and 3. BC members made a direct appeal to join the ICANN BC, collected contact info, and made follow-ups.

How’s that sound to members of Outreach Committee?

Thanks everyone.

I have already expressed in the past that I have my doubts about the IGF being the right venue for BC Outreach.

That being said, I would ask the BC members that are going to be funded by the BC Outreach budget, please offer your feedback about this, so that we can know better for future IGF´s how to proceed regarding requests to participate in the IGF with BC Outreach budget.

I assume that of the 20K a part has already been spent (is that correct?). And Steve said we need at least to leave half for the next 6 months. So, considering that, I would rather not spend more that $3000 overall for all 3 candidates.

I also understood from Steve´s email that the remote hub would not be elegible. Is that correct?

Thanks,

Gabi

Thanks for weighing in Steve. FYI, what was in the mind of the Finance Committee per 'others' in the Budget breakdown was Eastern Europe noting that Africa, Asia and Latin America were already covered.

This recommendation is now in the hands of our ad-hoc outreach committee, but let me (on ExCom) remind you of the budget we approved (attached).

We have $20K in Outreach budget, which must cover the 12 months ending Jun-2018. So, we should preserve approximately half of the budget amount for events over the remaining half of our fiscal year. That includes outreach at the next 2 ICANN meetings in San Juan and Panama.

The budget line item on page 11 was “Outreach in Latin America, Africa, Asia, and others @ $5,000 plus additional outreach contingency”

Note that there was no explicit budget for Europe. Since Europe is included in “all others”, there is $5,000 budgeted, of which some share could be allocated to IGF.

But as I noted on the last BC call and several members agreed, this budget is only for Outreach on behalf of the BC:

“In my opinion, IGF travel support should be allocated only to those BC members who are presenting at IGF, where they can advocate for businesses to join the BC.”

Thanks,

Steve

Hi all,

I appreciate Gabi’s approach.

Having now being informed that $5,000 is budgeted for Europe in FY2018, I want to believe Marilyn’s proposal may just be apt. This is assuming individual requests matches or surpass allocated amount.

Should request be lower than amount proposed by Marilyn, then, requested amount should take precedence.

The outstanding $1,000 could as well support Lawrence. With Infrastructure challenges in Nigeria, I know this is amount is low, but I would expect partnerships would have been sought with other local stakeholders.

Cheers,

TS

Jimson/Andy/Marilyn

As far as I understand, the criteria for support has been met by all 3 candidates and now the only question to solve would be how much to allocate for each candidate.

So, the two options on the table are:

- $2400 (800 each) - proposed by Andy

-$4000: (1500 for Mark and Jimson - each- and 1000 for Marilyn): proposed by Marilyn as a counter proposal

I believe the only way to have a criteria on how much to allocate for each would be:

1. - the request the candidates make - which can serve as a maximum

2. - BC budget that we have available until the end of FY

Can someone clarify point 2 please?

Thanks a lot,

Team,

Was almost totally offline yesterday so just catching up. To your question, Marilyn, the criteria we discussed on the call were speaking at IGF and the ability to represent BC in front of audiences (including new audiences) that might be helpful to us. It seems that all 3 proposals would fit those criteria.

Just to be clear to all team members on the process, until Jimson made a request to Excomm (not to OC) there was only one formal request — from Mark, representing Nivaldo’s company.

Also, there wasn’t/isn’t any specific budget allocated to IGF Geneva in the Outreach Plan, and there was some active discussion about whether or not IGF was really a good opportunity for us. (The last strong opinion was from Marilyn’s email of 11/10 an excerpt of which is below, in response to the request from Mark):

As someone that is very familiar with the IGF, and how it works, there is no real opportunity to recruit business, nor to engage in BC outreach during the IGF. We can consider if we want to plan toward asking for funding for something for IGF2018, depending on who the host is.

So, I am a dissenting voice on this, at this point.

Marilyn

I have been to a number of IGFs and my sense is like Marilyn’s — that they have some value to the BC but are not worth a big investment on our part. Also we are only halfway through our FY and have to make our budget last — with work to do in the two coming Latin America ICANN meetings (and perhaps the run-up to them) as our membership is not as robust as we want in that region.

Given these factors my recommendation is that allocate a budget of $2400 and split it evenly among the 3 requesters ($800 each). This seems like the best mix of what members are asking for and the overall value of this particular event to the BC as noted above.

Cheers, Andrew

Thanks for the opportunity to request funding.

What is the criteria?

I haven't seen the email with the criteria, so I will just take a stab at justification for asking for $1,000 funding to attend.

Request from Marilyn Cade

Engagement at IGF2017 --

-participant in planning the agendas of the two ICANN sessions and participant in both

-co organizer of Day Zero Event focused on Social and economic opportunities for women, where the BC fact sheet will be distributed, and engagement of the BC described as relevant to engagement of women /in business from the CASA region

-keynote speaker at a formal event with Afghanistan, Pakisan, Tunisian delegations [85% governmental attendees]- engagement in ICANN is one of the key points in the briefing about IG and ICANN's role is key to this presentation/BC Fact Sheet distribution

-speaker at ICANNWiki booth [proposed to include other BC members attending]

-key contributor at the NRI shared booth, where we can put BC Fact Sheets

-offer to provide a brief review of the IGF Village booths, along with other funded BC travelers, to determine whether BC should host a booth at IGF2018

-speaker at at least one of the NRI collaborative sessions about models for multi stakeholder engagement -- using BC and ICANN as example: Fake News/Misinformation/Disinformation.

Requested Funding: $1,000.

Again, I apologize, but did not see any criteria document/or the deadline, so am doing the best I can on responding with a request for funding.

All,

Following up on yesterday's call as it appears my earlier email went to an earlier BC Private list that has been deactivated (sorry about that).

As of the time of our call yesterday, two BC representatives (Jimson Olufuye and Mark Datysgeld) had requested support for their participation at the upcoming IGF in Geneva. Both are speaking and are in positions to promote the BC as part of their participation, criteria suggested by members on yesterday's call as recommended conditions for support.

Recognizing that IGF is coming up quickly, *are there any other BC members who will be attending IGF that are in need of support in order to attend and meet the criteria*? (If so, what role will you be playing?)

In the interest of time, please send back any new requests by *COB tomorrow Eastern time US*. The Outreach Committee will try to review the requests and budget and pass along recommendations to Excomm by Monday COB.

Thanks,

Andrew

Thank you Marilyn for volunteering to intervene at our hub and would look forward to having more BC members do the same. I would also make a formal request on the full BC list in the week ahead for persons interested in intervening asides those of us who would physically be on ground. Thanks again. Lawrence.

I think they are covered. From our informal discussions, and based on Lawrence’s update below, he is engaging with Arinola and Tola, and also Jimson and is reaching out to the Coordinator of the Nigerian IGF - Mary Uduma, to ensure that the NIGF stakeholders are aware of the event as well as Nigerian business. [One requirement of the Hubs is that they be open to all, based on space, but that can be accomplished by publicizing also with the Nigerian IGF Coordinating group.

Also, as each of the remote hubs can organize a program of their own, plus participate in the IGF remotely, as a hub, or encourage small groups from their hub to follow different workshops, main sessions, etc.,the BC members attending can do a presentation about the BC,perhaps similar to the panel that we did in South Africa Outreach, explaining ICANN, the BC, and why businesses care about and engage in ICANN. That could be a special segment during one of the days of the Remote Hub, with then BC Fact Sheet available, with then informal engagement with businesses who attend.

As I mentioned, I can commit to doing a “reverse” participation in the Remote Hub, if that is useful.

Let me look at who is attending IGF from ICANN. Perhaps someone from ICANN can be invited to provide greetings to the Remote Hub.

This is an opportunistic use of our human [BC members interest and commitment] and I believe can be useful to the BC, and to ICANN.

To your question, Marilyn, the criteria we discussed on the call were speaking at IGF and the ability to represent BC in front of audiences (including new audiences) that might be helpful to us. It seems that all 3 proposals would fit those criteria.

Also, there wasn’t/isn’t any specific budget allocated to IGF Geneva in the Outreach Plan, and there was some active discussion about whether or not IGF was really a good opportunity for us. (The last strong opinion was from Marilyn’s email of 11/10 an excerpt of which is below, in response to the request from Mark):

As someone that is very familiar with the IGF, and how it works, there is no real opportunity to recruit business, nor to engage in BC outreach during the IGF. We can consider if we want to plan toward asking for funding for something for IGF2018, depending on who the host is.

So, I am a dissenting voice on this, at this point.

Marilyn

I have been to a number of IGFs and my sense is like Marilyn’s — that they have some value to the BC but are not worth a big investment on our part. Also we are only halfway through our FY and have to make our budget last — with work to do in the two coming Latin America ICANN meetings (and perhaps the run-up to them) as our membership is not as robust as we want in that region.

Given these factors my recommendation is that allocate a budget of $2400 and split it evenly among the 3 requesters ($800 each). This seems like the best mix of what members are asking for and the overall value of this particular event to the BC as noted above.

Cheers, Andrew

Thanks for the opportunity to request funding.

What is the criteria?

I haven't seen the email with the criteria, so I will just take a stab at justification for asking for $1,000 funding to attend.

Request from Marilyn Cade

Engagement at IGF2017 --

-participant in planning the agendas of the two ICANN sessions and participant in both

-co organizer of Day Zero Event focused on Social and economic opportunities for women, where the BC fact sheet will be distributed, and engagement of the BC described as relevant to engagement of women /in business from the CASA region

-keynote speaker at a formal event with Afghanistan, Pakisan, Tunisian delegations [85% governmental attendees]- engagement in ICANN is one of the key points in the briefing about IG and ICANN's role is key to this presentation/BC Fact Sheet distribution

-speaker at ICANNWiki booth [proposed to include other BC members attending]

-key contributor at the NRI shared booth, where we can put BC Fact Sheets

-offer to provide a brief review of the IGF Village booths, along with other funded BC travelers, to determine whether BC should host a booth at IGF2018

-speaker at at least one of the NRI collaborative sessions about models for multi stakeholder engagement -- using BC and ICANN as example: Fake News/Misinformation/Disinformation.

Requested Funding: $1,000.

Again, I apologize, but did not see any criteria document/or the deadline, so am doing the best I can on responding with a request for funding.

*From:* Bc-private <bc-private-bounces@icann.org<mailto:bc-private-bounces@icann.org>> on behalf of amack < amack@amglobal.com<mailto:amack@amglobal.com>> *Sent:* Friday, December 1, 2017 3:19 PM *To:* bc-private icann.org<http://icann.org> *Subject:* [Bc-private] Trying again -- possible support for IGF attendees

All,

Following up on yesterday's call as it appears my earlier email went to an earlier BC Private list that has been deactivated (sorry about that).

As of the time of our call yesterday, two BC representatives (Jimson Olufuye and Mark Datysgeld) had requested support for their participation at the upcoming IGF in Geneva. Both are speaking and are in positions to promote the BC as part of their participation, criteria suggested by members on yesterday's call as recommended conditions for support.

Recognizing that IGF is coming up quickly, *are there any other BC members who will be attending IGF that are in need of support in order to attend and meet the criteria*? (If so, what role will you be playing?)

In the interest of time, please send back any new requests by *COB tomorrow Eastern time US*. The Outreach Committee will try to review the requests and budget and pass along recommendations to Excomm by Monday COB.

Thanks,

Andrew
