for
years for almost 20 years now. They have been
able to do that thanks to generous contributions
from forward-thinking corporate sponsors and
reasonably priced individual memberships
at multiple levels. The latter are designed to
make it possible for every professional in
this business to have a hand in helping both the
industry and themselves continue to grow and prosper
in the years ahead. That
is what makes the ICA Annual Member Meeting
so unique. Every person there has skin in the
game and a vested interest in seeing their
fellow members succeed. That makes building
meaningful relationships infinitely easier and has
created a special bond among those who
understand and appreciate what this community can
accomplish when we work together. You can get a feel
for the ICA Meeting experience in our
review of the 2025 event held this past
January at Resorts World is Las Vegas. With
that background, you can understand why the opening
of early
bird ticket sales for the 2026
Annual Meeting (and the substantial savings
they represent) is always a highly anticipated event
among members, as well as those want to be (any
industry participant can join
right now on the ICA website). Early
bird pricing will be available until August 15,
2025. As we told you
about last month, the 2026 Meeting will
he held January 15-17 at a spacious new venue
- the Park
MGM Hotel, with discounted rooms
available both there and at the upscale Nomad
Hotel on the same property. The Park MGM
(located directly on the Las Vegas Strip) is shown
in the photo below. The Nomad Hotel occupies the top
four floors of the building, so you are just a
quick elevator ride down to the conference floor
from all rooms at both hotels.
ICA
Executive Director Kamila Sekiewicz
promised, "This will be our biggest and most
connected meeting yet. We’re building on the
momentum of past years to deliver three days of
engaging content, meaningful networking, member-led
sessions, and time to connect with friends and peers
from across the domain name industry. Whether
you’re returning or joining us for the first time,
this meeting is designed to bring together the best
of our community—and we’d love for you to be
part of it."
We
will be there of cours, both to see fellow members
and to cover the show for readers who can't make the
trip. We do hope that we will have the opportunity
to see you there!
