The meeting provided GCD clients with the opportunity to:
- Hear from industry experts on the state of the domain market
- Learn about recent ICANN policy work surrounding DNS abuse, potential changes to transfer policy, access to domain ownership, and next round of new gTLDs
- Preview and provide feedback on the Brandsight product roadmap
- Attend fireside chats and panel discussions with users of the Brandsight platform
The fireside chats in particular provided an opportunity for clients to hear directly from domain professionals regarding the challenges they respectively face and how using the Brandsight platform has enabled them to securely and efficiently manage their corporate portfolios. The panel discussion which featured Brandsight users across different verticals focused on best practices for managing corporate domain portfolios.
The event was open to existing GCD clients only and was not recorded to encourage frank and open discourse.
Feedback from the meeting was overwhelmingly positive. One attendee stated, “The information is great to have and listening to how others deal with things is refreshing.”
