The ICANN’s incoming President and CEO, Mr. Göran Marby, will also be speaking to attendees during the welcome ceremony.  Just as the outgoing CEO, Mr. Fadi Chehadé and Board Chair Dr. Stephen Crocker will be addressing attendees during the ceremony.

ITRealms recalls that ICANN’s public meetings held trice annually, convenes members of the global, multistakeholder Internet community, made up of individual users, businesses, civil society, governments, research institutions and non-government organizations, to discuss issues impacting the Domain Name System (DNS) and develop policy.
