> Dear Constituency / Stakeholder Group Leaders,
>
> Please find below a ‘hold the date’ announcement for a webinar that  
> ICANN policy staff will be organizing on policy development with  
> the objective to engage new participants in ICANN, and especially  
> GNSO policy development activities. We hope you will share this  
> announcement with organizations / individuals that you think might  
> or should be interested in getting more involved in ICANN.
>
> As a follow up to this webinar, and to take advantage of the next  
> ICANN meeting taking place in Brussels where many organizations and  
> companies have representations, we are exploring the concept of a  
> GNSO Constituency / Stakeholder Group Networking event to take  
> place on Tuesday afternoon / evening at the end of constituency  
> day. The idea would be to invite interested parties with your help  
> to attend this event at which each constituency / stakeholder group  
> has an opportunity to provide a short presentation about themselves  
> to the audience. In addition, each constituency / stakeholder group  
> would be allocated a table / corner in the room, so that  
> conversations can be continued with interested participants. We  
> hope such an event might help attract new participants to GNSO  
> policy development as well as the GNSO Community as a whole. We  
> would be interested to hear whether your constituency / stakeholder  
> group would be interested in participating in such an event before  
> considering any further arrangements. Please share your feedback  
> with Marika Konings at marika.konings at icann.org.

> About ICANN:
> To reach another person on the Internet you have to type an  
> address  into your computer - a name or a number. That address has  
> to be unique so computers know where to find each other. ICANN  
> coordinates these unique identifiers across the world, so that  
> there can be one global Internet. The Internet Corporation for  
> Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) was formed in 1998. It is a not- 
> for-profit partnership  of people from all over the world dedicated  
> to keeping the Internet secure, stable and interoperable. It  
> promotes competition and develops policy on the Internet’s unique  
> identifiers, primarily the domain name system (DNS), IP addresses,  
> and port numbers. For further information, please visit http://
