Mr. Chahadé continued to highlight many ICANN programs and initiatives. He drew attention to learn.icann.org. He defended ICANN against what some have called a "runaway budget" by highlighting that ICANN has worked to cut the translation costs at [[ICANN Meetings]] by hundreds of thousands of dollars. He discussed the new globalization of ICANN, mentioning new staff members in Singapore and across Africa. The President discussed ICANN's multistakeholder model and [[ICANNLabs]], a series of web experiments aimed at broadening participation and communication within the ICANN community. He also promised that by [[ICANN 49]] in Singapore, the ICANN.org website would have a redesign. | Mr. Chahadé continued to highlight many ICANN programs and initiatives.
