  • Who: Domainers, Marketing, Investors

Why New York? Because the “Big Apple” is the center of the universe when it comes to commerce, banks, advertising and especially Web 2.0, 3.0 and beyond . It’s the toughest marketplace in the world but still the most liquid and fairest in many respects.

We are in a fast moving business. What is important now may not be important next week. Having the ability to keep up with changes in business is perhaps our single biggest strength. What we do know is we will bring the biggest and the best together once again and the show is sponsored by the top businesses on the net. Together with our partners, we promise a show that continues to be better and more important than the last. Built around networking with the key people that can affect our futures in a very positive way.
