Dear friends and colleagues, This is to inform you that we’re working on 2 APAC Space events for ICANN57 in Hyderabad, India. First, the upcoming APAC Space face-to-face meeting in ICANN57 Hyderabad is scheduled on Tuesday, 8 November 2016 from 3:15PM – 4:45PM (local Hyderabad time). We propose to continue discussion on APAC participation and contribution to the New gTLD Subsequent Procedures Policy Development Process (PDP), and focus our discussions on one of the PDP Work Tracks. We will update you with a proposed agenda closer to the event. Second, as ICANN57 will be held in the APAC region, we would like to seize the opportunity to welcome our community members and propose having an APAC Networking Event. We suggest hosting the networking session as a pre-dinner event with drinks provided to allow our various stakeholders to meet in an informal setting and get to know one another better. We’re looking at Tuesday, 8 November 2016 from 6:30PM – 7:30PM (local Hyderabad time) as it is currently the only slot with the fewest schedule conflicts. Appreciate an indication from you on whether you will be able to attend the networking event at the proposed date and time. You may refer to the ICANN57 schedule at the following link: https://icann572016.sched.org/ . Thank you and look forward to hearing back from you.
