'''TANGO REGISTRY SERVICES''' was created in response to the historic passage of a new [[gTLD]] program by [[ICANN]] at its [[ICANN 41|41st meeting]] held in June, 2011 in Singapore. It is largely a registry software service wholly owned and distributed by [[Knipp Medien und Kommunikation]], though they also provide certain hardware support. TANGO [[registry]] focuses entirely on [[Brand TLD]]s, that is, the new opportunities for brands to create their own .brand domain via the new gTLD program. They note that while most other standard registries have a diffuse chain of actors, including registry operators, registrars, and end users, a brand may now be the operator, administrator, and user of their own domain. Thus, they focus on empowering those brands looking to create their own domain space through their specialized software and hardware services.<ref>[http://www.knipp.de/domains/tango/overview.do Overview, Knipp.de]</ref>
