Hello all, following up on the RightsCon conference, please be so kind to see the email from Jean-Jacques Sahel, asking whether EURALO members will be attending and interested in actively participating in a booth. Kindest regards, Olivier -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: ICANN at RightsCon Date: Wed, 22 Feb 2017 12:26:25 +0000 From: Jean-Jacques Sahel <jean-jacques.sahel@icann.org> To: Olivier Crepin-Leblond <ocl@gih.com> CC: Adam Peake <adam.peake@icann.org> Dear Olivier, As I mentioned over the phone, ICANN will take part this year in RightsCon, which takes place late March in Brussels. In particular, ICANN CEO Goran Marby has been invited to take part in a high level panel on Thursday 30 March. As one of the leading conferences on Internet issues, it is a good place for the ICANN community to engage with a range of civil society stakeholders and also more widely, with many business and government stakeholders in attendance. Details are here: https://www.rightscon.org/. There is a possibility of having a booth at the event. We think this is potentially a good opportunity to raise awareness of ICANN and encourage participation for the range of potentially interested stakeholders who will be attending RightsCon. Before we proceed with reserving a booth (which we need to do in the very next few days), we felt it important to see if there would be interest from our constituencies in this booth; we would like to make sure that the booth can serve to display the brochures and other information from across ICANN and its constituencies, and preferably also that community members are involved directly in ‘manning’ the booth, together with ICANN staff, so that community members themselves can engage directly with interested conference delegates. So I wanted to ask if (i) there would be At Large community members likely to attend RightsCon and (ii) if they and At Large / EURALO more widely would indeed be interested in us having a booth at the event, and in being involved at the booth on the day. I’d be grateful for your advice, Thank you, Jean-Jacques Vice-President, Europe ICANN Tel: +44 77 400 73176 Skype: jean-jacques.sahel.icann Email: jean-jacques.sahel@icann.org <mailto:jean-jacques.sahel@icann.org> @pointjjs /One World, One Internet/ cid:689AB906-EEAC-46C8-8257-7506F7B78BD8
