'''Clément Genty''' is an independent French researcher at Arts & Metiers ParisTech in industrial engineering and lecturer at the University of Angers.

He is particularly interested in the technical function of the domain name and its [[Domain Name Valuation|value]].  
    
At ICANN58, he suggested the creation of new [[TLD]] based on the unused .FX [[Country code top-level domain|ccTLD]] to create a trusted space<ref>http://schd.ws/hosted_files/icann58copenhagen2017/17/4.%20Clement%20Genty-F-ICANN58.pdf</ref>. During the Public Forum, he asked for a better understanding of the Domain Name System, citing his mother who doesn't understand anything. At the end of its answer, [[Göran Marby]], CEO of ICANN added "''Good luck with your mother and explaining it. My mother is 85 and she never figured out what I do or why''"<ref>https://schd.ws/hosted_files/icann58copenhagen2017/60/I58CPH_Thu16Mar2017-Public%20Forum%202-en.pdf</ref>.

In his thesis, Genty studied scientific publications, popular articles, commercial services including [https://www.estibot.com/ Estibot], [https://www.freevaluator.com/ Freevaluator], [http://www.domainappraisal.org/ Domain Appraisal], [https://domainindex.com/ Domainindex], [https://www.domraider.com/ Domraider], [https://www.siteprice.org/ Siteprice] [https://www.godaddy.com/domain-value-appraisal GoDaddy] and several patents, most of them filed by [[GoDaddy]].

After performing different PCAs, Genty highlighted the correlation effect of price with length, number of words and [[TLD]]. However, the prediction of value proved impossible, with a R² too low to be usable.

Worked as a research engineer for the French registrar [[Nameshield]]. Within Nameshield, Genty was interested in naming strategies, this French registrar being specialized in B2B. He has published articles on the valuation of domain names, on naming evolutions and has proposed<ref>https://hal.archives-ouvertes.fr/hal-01868217/document</ref> the Iceberg matrix, considering that a domain name has an emerged part, its semantics, and an immersed part, which he calls criticality (links, traffic, SEO,...). He has published nearly forty articles on the company's blog, in English<ref>https://blog.nameshield.com/blog/author/clgenty/</ref> and in French<ref>https://blog.nameshield.com/fr/author/clgenty/</ref>. During his work, Genty passed a drone pilot license to show<ref>https://blog.nameshield.com/fr/2018/11/14/comment-je-suis-devenu-un-professionnel-de-lair-en-15-minutes/</ref> that it was easy to own a domain name in [[.AERO]].

=== Application to the ICANN Board of Directors ===
 +
In 2019, Genty applied to Nomcom to become a member of the ICANN Board of Directors. For him, ICANN's three challenges are as follows:<blockquote>''The first is geopolitical. I think that Chinese and Russian decisions are problematic and that it is important to create a reflection around the organisation of a summit for a single Internet. The same applies to communication between peoples.'' </blockquote><blockquote>''The second is the general public. As long as the Internet is working, everything is fine.  However, it seems important to communicate to the general public about Internet governance. As a member of the Board of Directors, I will seek to establish research  laboratories in different countries, at least one per continent. Hence my willingness to communicate with my profile as a young researcher.''</blockquote><blockquote>''The third and last is economic. ICANN's economy is linked to domain name registrations. The 2012 opening has resulted in nearly fifty abandoned TLD and it is important that ICANN be at the side of the registries to improve the technological capabilities of these new extensions and at the side of communicators and agencies to improve knowledge on these new extensions and avoid new cases of badbuzz, such as BLOOMBERG.MARKET.''</blockquote>Supported by several registries and researchers, Genty was not selected.
