It’s all about domains ...
◗ The domain industry encompasses a diverse and ever-expanding array of niches and domain names are valuable digital assets that open doors to a multitude of possibilities. They serve as critical tools for branding, a smart investment or a security factor in the competitive online space.
As this sector continues to grow rapidly, it requires the keen insight and strategic foresight of industry experts to successfully navigate its complex dynamics and capitalize on the potential it holds.
In 2021, we launched a project titled "It's all about domains"— an interview series with the vision of convening the leading voices in the domain industry to shed light on its niche and multifaceted corners. Why did we embark on this venture?
To forge connections, to foster knowledge sharing and to bridge audiences from disparate industry niches. Our aim was to create a platform where experts could share their expertise, while presenting their personal stories, their achievements and their challenges in shaping the domain landscape we navigate today.
Here we are in 2024 with the third volume, poised to present ten interviews that delve into diverse topics ranging from internet infrastructure and policy to domain investing and DNS security. We are thankful to each expert who has devoted their time and shared their insights. Their contributions have been nothing short of foundational in building the edifice of knowledge this series represents.
