New: Webinar to Discuss the Draft PTI FY21-24 Strategic Plan

From: David Conrad, Chief Technology Officer (CTO)

 

Public Technical Identifiers (PTI), the ICANN affiliate responsible for performance of the IANA functions, invites the community to engage with IANA staff and members of the PTI Board to discuss the development of its first comprehensive strategic plan.

 

When the PTI board and IANA staff attended ICANN66, they shared a timeline for the publication of the draft strategic plan that included face-to-face engagement during ICANN67 in Cancún, Mexico. Due to the COVID-19 outbreak and change to a remote participation-only meeting, we will now host two interactive webinars in parallel with a Public Comment proceeding that is running from 20 April to 1 June 2020.

 

Webinar #1

Thursday, 14 May, 14:00-15:00 UTC

Passcode: 30i524!6

 

Webinar #2

Thursday, 14 May, 23:00-00:00 UTC (Friday, 15 May 2020)

Passcode: a10s646$"
