The annual free domain name conference of the German-speaking world, Domain Pulse, is heading to the North Tyrolean Alps city of Innsbruck in Austria in February 2020 with the organisers looking towards the future, asking attendees to “gaze into the crystal ball together” with them.
Day 1 is dedicated to the question of what future will bring
in terms of technology, internet governance and the world of work – and where
the forecasts come from! On the second day, we will highlight the issue of risk
– how much are we prepared to take in our personal lives, careers and as a
society? And at what price?
The presentations will focus on the future of internet
governance, the talents of tomorrow, does the domain name system tell us
anything about the future, artificial intelligence, looking forward with 5G and
its challenges in particular relating to surveillance and citizen’s rights and
what should ccTLD registries expect in the future.
This year’s Domain Pulse conference (which is not related to
the DomainPulse.com domain name news site) will be held on Thursday 20 and
Friday 21 February. In 2020 the conference is organised by the Austrian ccTLD
manager nic.at, with the conference rotating to be hosted by DENIC in 2021 in
Germany, then by SWITCH in Switzerland in 2022.
Unfortunately for English-only speakers there will be no English/German
simultaneous translation service and most of the sessions will be in German.
However given that networking is as important as the conference topics, it can
still be extremely worthwhile to attend.
To register, book hotels, check out the agenda and find out more information in general, go to: domainpulse.at/dp2020. There are plenty of trains passing through Innsbruck and a number of airlines fly to Innsbruck. Conference hotels start at €120 per night, plus there’s the always wonderful Thursday evening event.
