'''[[ICANN|Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers]] (ICANN)''' is a global multi-stakeholder organization that was created an 1998 and empowered through actions by the U.S. government and its [[DOC|Department of Commerce]]. Its primary responsibility is to manage the Internet's core infrastructure, which consists of IP addresses, domain names, and root servers. It coordinates the Internet's [[DNS]], [[IP]] addresses and [[ASN|autonomous system numbers]], which involves a continued management of these evolving systems and the protocols that underly them.

The four-day meeting offered a diverse schedule of panels, dialogues, and debates developed in a bottom-up, multistakeholder process. It also provided an opportunity for Best Practice Forums (BPFs) and Dynamic Coalitions (DCs) to showcase and build on intersessional work.

On 1 October 2016, the oversight of ICANN transitioned from the U.S. government to the private sector, which will govern the Internet's unique identifiers through the multistakeholder model.
