We know that networking is critical your success. Yet many people just can’t afford the time and expense to
attend 2- or 3-day conferences in distant cities.
That’s why DOMAINfest is now offering a series of one-day, high-impact, regional networking events. The
second in this series will be held in New York City on Wednesday August 18, 2010 at the Grand Hyatt Hotel.

Wednesday August 18
