[NCUC-DISCUSS] ICANN Study on Digital Economy in MENAT

Mon Oct 9 16:23:25 CEST 2017

Hi Ayden,

See the response below from Fahd, who is the stakeholder engagement manager
for the Middle East. He can answer your questions, as can Baher Esmat, VP
for stakeholder engagement in the Middle East.

Best,
-Michael

(looping in Baher)

Michael, in reply to Ayden’s question, the report builds on the 2014 BCG
report on eFriction
<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/bcg-internet-economy-27jan14-en.pdf>,
and the 2016 MEAC DNS Study
<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/meac-dns-study-26feb16-en.pdf>.
If one reads both reports, one would understand where the likes of fintech
and startups fit within the context of the report.

Hope this helps.

Fahd
