Follow on Google News | InterNetX supports “South School on Internet Governance”The second SSIG took place in São Paulo, Brazil from March 22 to 26, 2010. Thomas Moerz, CEO of InterNetX, added a fresh start to the third day of the program with his informative presentation on the role of registrars in the Internet.
By: InterNetX GmbH “We want to motivate young leaders to get involved and take on responsibility for shaping the Internet. Knowledge of Internet governance is of utmost importance in doing this,” says Thomas Moerz. “The participants of SSIG have the chance to become aware of the possibilities and challenges that the Internet has to offer – specifically in their region. As the decision-makers and players in the network, they influence the development of the Internet socially, politically and economically. This kind of responsibility means that knowledge of themes around Internet Governance is more important than ever.” Although the domain business forms part of the Internet’s backbone, very few understand how it works and how registrars fit into the picture. Mr. Moerz helped to fill in this gap with his lecture. He explained the role of the registrar in the Internet, giving the students an understanding of the processes and organizations involved in domain registration and management, additional registrar services, registrar positioning in the market and the typical challenges they face. The SSIG program gave participants an all-round understanding of Internet governance – ranging from technical and security issues to economic, legal and social perspectives. It’s an excellent forum for young professionals to discuss the chances and challenges of the Internet on an expert level.
