Dear all,

ICANN published the results of the ICANN59 participant survey, and the technical, demographic, and attendance statistics. There are two reports: the Community Feedback report and the By the Numbers report. These reports summarize the findings from ICANN's second Public Forum Meeting of the new meeting strategy. These reports are part of ICANN's commitment to transparency.

By the Numbers Report highlights include:

• 1,353 checked-in participants, with 498 listing their region as Africa 
• 33% of attendees participating for the first time 
• 236 sessions held, for a total of 423 hours 
• Top three sessions by attendance:
  1. General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and its Potential Impact: Looking for Practical Solutions
  2. Cross-Community Discussion on Next-Generation gTLD Registration Directory Services (RDS) Policy Requirements
  3. Who Sets ICANN's Priorities? 
• 39,729 schedule website page views 
• 8.2 terabytes of data as network traffic 

The goal is to improve on the feedback and statistics we collect, and to look for trends by comparing meeting data over time. Learning about trends gives greater insights into how we are meeting the needs of attendees, and informs the kinds of changes we need to make.
