LESS THAN TWO MONTHS TO GO

We are less than two months away from Nordic Domain Days. Registrations are running 20% ahead of last year. If the trend holds, we will sell out. We have a strict capacity limit. Once we are full, we are full. If you are planning to attend, register now.

The team just got back from CloudFest, where we spent the week meeting with stage hosts, speakers, and partners. The energy around this year’s event was impossible to miss. Everyone we spoke with is genuinely excited about coming back to Stockholm for this year’s NDD.

And for good reason. The second round of new gTLDs opens just weeks before our event, making this year’s program especially timely. Theresa Swinehart of ICANN will deliver our keynote, and Ray King of Porkbun joins us for the first time. If you know the industry, you know that name. The Domain Industry Update is going to be particularly special this year.

If you or your organization are considering a partnership, a handful of opportunities remain, but they are going fast. Drop us a line at info@nordicdomaindays.se before they are gone.

For those of you celebrating Easter this week, happy Easter from the NDD team. We look forward to seeing you in May.

Regards,

Lars “LG” Forsberg

Founder & Curator
