All meetings were held in the Melbourne Exhibition and Convention Centre (MECC).

The ICANN 8 event lasted for the duration of the five days it had been planned for, and like all ICANN Meetings, it was seen as a great success, as many people from the industry had turned up to say their problems and concerns. There were several topics on the agenda for the event, one of the main topics being New Top level Domain Agreements.[1]

  • Alice's Registry, Inc. (United States)
  • British Telecommunications plc (BT plc) (United Kingdom)
  • DomainPro, Inc. (United States)
  • DevelopersNetwork.com, Inc. d/b/a DomainInvestigator.com (Canada)
  • Direct Information Pvt. Ltd. d/b/a Directi.com (India)
  • Domain Intellect Pty Ltd (Australia)
  • eMarkmonitor Inc. d/b/a Markmonitor (United States)
