Background

Wolfgang Kleinwächter, Professor for International Communication Policy and Regulation at the University of Aarhus initiated the establishment of ICANN Studienkreis.[2] Medienstadt Leipzig e.V. / Netcom Institute, an ICANN-recognized At-Large Structure, helped to establish the network in 1999. It was originally intended for the German language internet community, and was primarily supported by ccTLD registries namely DENIC (.de), Switch (.ch and.li), and Nic.at (.at). It has since become internationalized,[3] and is supported by industry companies and organizations such as Verisign, United Domains, Afilias, IronDNS, CENTR, PIR, InterNetX, Key-Systems, DOTZON, EURid, ECO, CEU, CMCS, EPAG Domain Services, and ISZT.[4]
