The Internet has changed dramatically over the last decade with multi-lingual and long domain names such as .香港, .在线, .online, .भारत, etc a couple years ago. While the major web browsers and some email clients are already supporting such domains technically, many of the businesses and software developers are still yet to adapt the changes in their I.T solutions, which in turn hinder users from accessing their services. The DNS will soon face another boom of Top-Level Domains with the next round of New gTLD program launching. To make sure your applications/systems are compatible, competitive and inclusive, learn about how to become UA-ready now!
This seminar will inform you about:
Business opportunities of the second round of new generic Top-Level Domains (new gTLD) program
