Spring
Brings an Abundance of Domain Meetups and
Conferences Around the World
|
|
In
addition
to warmer weather and
blossoming flowers Spring 2016
is bringing a bountiful bouquet of
domain industry networking
opportunities around the world.
In the U.S. alone three big
city domain meetups will be
held over the next 30 days. We will
also see two important full scale
multi-day international conferences between now and the
end of next month.
It
all gets started Friday evening
(April 15) when one of the most
active local/regional domain groups
in the world - Southern
California Domainers -
will hold their latest meetup in Santa
Monica, California. It

you want to attend the free event
that always draws a diverse crowd of
interesting and influential
people.

On
April 28 a brand new
meetup for Texas
domain entrepreneurs - DNHouston
- will debut at the Crush
Wine Lounge located at 20
Waterway Ave #200 in The
Woodlands. This event that
will run from 7pm to
9:30pm was |
|
organized
by Brand.bar's Angela St.
Julien and Scorpion
Agency's Amada Lyon.
Angela will speak at
the meeting along with
Eric Lyon from NamePros
and Kevin Kopas from
the Public Interest
Registry. Tickets
are $25 and capacity will be
limited to the first 50 to
sign up. You can find more
details on the event here.
The
trio of springtime meetups
in the U.S. will conclude
with the 3rd annual edition
of DNSeattle
that we
told you about a
few weeks ago. That event
will be held on the evening
of May 12 at GoDaddy's
offices in Kirkland, Washington.
It has already sold out but
you can ask to be placed on
a waiting list at the meetup
website.

The
first of the two
springtime internationally
oriented
conferences I
mentioned above will
be the inaugural
edition of Domainers
Meet in Dubai
April 23-24.
This landmark show
at the Hotel
Radisson Blu will
be the first major
domain conference
ever held in the Middle
East. |
|
|
We
have been writing
about this event
ever since it was
announced and now
it's just 10 days
away.
The
organizers have
lined up an
excellent group of
speakers from around
the and the
conference should
give the industry a
significant boost in
that important part
of the world. As of
this writing, early
bird tickets
start at 1485 AED
($404) with a
special 825 AED
($225) rate
available to
students.

Closing
out the
Spring 2016
conference/meetup
calendar
will be the
8th edition
of the Domaining
Europe
conference
that will be
held outside
of Spain
for the
first time.
After seven
well
received
shows in Valencia,
conference
founder Dietmar
Stefitz
decided to
freshen
things up by
staging this
year's event
in The
Hague,
Netherlands
at the
fabulous Grand
Hotel Amrath
Kurhaus
with the
show running
May 29-31.
We've
been writing
about this
event
since the
new dates
and location
were
announced
and we know
from its
track record
that
Domaining
Europe is
always a first
class experience.
As of this
writing they
are offering
a discounted
ticket price
of €315
that you can
take
advantage of
here. |
