Kind Regards, Werner -------- Forwarded Message -------- Betreff: [DENICpublic-l] NEWS RELEASE: DENIC eG, eco e.V. and City of Hamburg Act as Joint Hosts of ICANN Annual General Meeting in Fall 2020 Datum: Thu, 28 Jun 2018 17:26:56 +0200 Von: DENIC Presse <presse@denic.de> An: public-l@list.denic.de Dear Sir or Madam, Important decisions on the core functions of the Internet could be taken in Germany in 2020: Along with the City of Hamburg, German ccTLD Manager DENIC eG (.DE) and eco – Association of the Internet Industry will act as joint hosts of the 69th ICANN (Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers) meeting from 17 to 22 October 2020. ICANN is a not-for-profit organization which is responsible for the global coordination of names and parameters for the functioning and further development of the Internet. The decision in favour of Hamburg was taken on 24 June 2018 at the ICANN 62 Policy Forum in Panama. “After Berlin in 1999, this is the first time in 20 years that we have brought an ICANN conference to Germany,” says Oliver Süme, Chair of the Board of eco – Association of the Internet Industry. “With eco, DENIC, and the City of Hamburg, strong partners from industry and politics have joined to achieve this goal.” ICANN coordinates the management of address identifiers on the Internet For the Internet to work, domain names and IP numbers world-wide need to be unique. The central task of ICANN, founded in 1998, is to ensure this in collaboration with the global Internet community. As a result, Internet users anywhere in the world can, for example, type www.denic.de into their browser and thus reliably reach the DENIC webpage. “An open, free, and secure Internet is a strategic priority for DENIC. The commitment of the German Internet Community has been honored with the decision to bring the ICANN meeting to Hamburg. This will offer a good opportunity to put the German and European perspectives to the table at an even broader level,” says DENIC Board Member Dr. Jörg Schweiger. DENIC operates Germany‘s top-level domain .DE, which currently – with close to 16.3m domains under management – is the second-largest country-targeted namespace on the Internet. Alongside the country-targeted ones, there are also generic domain suffixes, including – on offer for several years now – ones with a clear regional focus. The City of Hamburg actively supported the registration of the new top-level domain .hamburg, so that, for example, the Hamburg police website can now be reached at <https://www.polizei.hamburg>. City of Hamburg welcomes international Internet community ICANN meetings are held three times a year, at varying locations around the world. The 2020 ICANN Annual General Meeting will run from 17 to 22 October in Hamburg. The organizers expect around 2,500 to 3,500 attendees to participate in this conference from academia, the tech community, politics, industry, and civil society: “Hamburg is smart and innovative, and is therefore a suitable setting for such an important conference of the international Internet community,” says Hamburg’s Senator of Economic Affairs, Frank Horch. The hosting partners had submitted their application to ICANN in November 2016, under the coordination of the Hamburg Convention Bureau. -- NOTE: To unsubscribe from this infomail, please contact presse[at]denic.de.

Dear Sir or Madam,
Important decisions on the core functions of the Internet could be taken in Germany in 2020: Along with the City of Hamburg, German ccTLD Manager DENIC eG (.DE) and eco – Association of the Internet Industry will act as joint hosts of the 69th ICANN (Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers) meeting from 17 to 22 October 2020.
