ICANN 48 was held from November 17 to November 21, 2013 in Buenos Aires, Argentina. It was hosted by NIC Argentina, the organization that manages Argentina's .ar ccTLD Registry.

Topics and discussions focused on the continued rollout of the New gTLD Program, as a small batch of applications had reached delegation and many more were facing RA contracting and possible auctions. Within the program itself, the issue of Name Collisions was debated, as well as what ICANN should do with the funds received from eventual "last resort" auctions in the New gTLD Program. Internet Governance was at the forefront of many discussions, in light of the NSA's surveillance on the Internet.

The event drew 2,034 registered participants, and was the final ICANN meeting in 2013. ICANN's 15th Anniversary was celebrated in Buenos Aires. It was the first time an ICANN meetings was held in Buenos Aires, and the second time an ICANN meeting was held in Argentina since ICANN 22 in Mar del Plata in 2005.
