TLD Registry Limited is a pan-European company, serving the global marketplace as a domain name registry in the high tech business sector. TLD Registry serves as the registry for two Top Level Domain IDNs, “Dot Chinese Online” (.在线 - meaning “online”), and “Dot Chinese Website” (.中文网 - meaning “website in Chinese”), which were approved and implemented under ICANN’s New gTLD Program.[1][2]
The company was the only applicant for the two strings above, and was also one of three companies applying for .city. They withdrew their bid for .city after an April 2014 private auction in which Donuts won.[2][3]
TLD Registry is funded by several angel investors in the high tech industry, including the Vision+ Fund, a Finnish venture capital investment group, and other business and angel investors including Apple and Nokia.[1]
TLD Registry focuses its business and marketplace capabilities in the China region. [4]
