On November 5-6, 2024, it.com Domains joined Domain Days in Dubai to share our vision of the development of the domain industry and make new business connections.

Domain Days Dubai is a two-day business event in the Middle East and Africa (MEA) region. The event brings together experts from various fields such as domain investors, registrars, registries, representatives of monetization and traffic, Web 3 domains, hosting and cloud providers, SaaS companies, and other industry enthusiasts.

This year, the main highlight of the event was the first domain name and digital asset auction in the region.

The participants had a great time attending the event over two days. They participated in various sessions where they could discuss the latest industry trends in the Middle East and Africa region.

it.com Domains, as a Gold Sponsor, hosted a networking event at the end of the second day. Participants had a chance to discuss the outcomes of the Domain Days.

Joe Alagna, the Chief Strategy Officer, conducted a session called “How to Get Your Own TLD! (and whether you should).” In this session, he shared his expertise on registering domain extensions.

“This is our second year sponsoring Domain Days in Dubai. Last year, we met some new registrars and resellers. This year there were even more. The event has a good mix of players in domain sales, investors, hosting providers, and even policymakers, so there is something for everyone. Most importantly, it’s an event that brings the Middle East and North Africa together with western business. We’ll surely be here again,”

said Joe Alagna.

Tess Diaz, Director of Channel Development, and Natalija Japerte, Business Development Manager, participated in a panel discussion titled “Champions of DNS: Women Pioneers and Innovators.” They shared their experience in managing and growing a business in the domain industry. In recent years, we’ve seen a positive trend in the number of women who hold leadership positions in business overall and in the domain industry specifically. it.com Domains is always committed to promoting diversity and inclusion in the industry and our speakers also talked about this at the session.

Tess also attended the “Future Horizons: AI, Web3 & New Domains” session as a speaker.

“The second year of Domain Days in Dubai somehow managed to be even bigger and more amazing than the first. The schedule allowed for quality time connecting with industry professionals, and the panels were high quality as well. We met current and new registrar partners, discussed the development of our partnership,”

shared Tess Diaz.
