Paris Chosen as Site of ICANN's June 2008 Meeting
Paris, France will host ICANN's 32nd International Public Meeting June 22 - 27, 2008.
At its August 14, 2007 meeting, the ICANN Board accepted the proposal put forward by Association pour la Gouvernance de l'Internet en France, en Europe, et dans le monde (AGIFEM). "ICANN is looking forward to working with AGIFEM and welcoming the global Internet community to Paris," said Paul Levins, ICANN's Executive Officer and Vice President - Corporate Affairs. "We had two highly competitive proposals to host the meeting slated for ICANN's European region - a testament to the great local Internet communities in France and Serbia."
ICANN has received a number of competitive bids to host the 31st Public Meeting, slated to be held February 10 - 15, 2008 in the Asia-Pacific region. They are being closely evaluated and a decision will be made shortly.
