By Oversee.net, PRNESunday, March 7, 2010
Early October event in Prague will focus on networking, building European business interest in online real estate
LOS ANGELES and FRANKFURT, March 8, 2010 - DomainSponsor(R), the domain monetization business unit of Oversee.net(R)
and organizer of the DOMAINfest(R) series of conferences, said today that it
will expand the highly regarded franchise into Europe with a conference in
Prague, Czech Republic.
The two-day event will be held Wednesday and Thursday, October 6 and 7,
2010 at the landmark Hotel Intercontinental located in the heart of one of
Europe's most beautiful cities. Building on the success of last month's event
in Santa Monica, California, the October meeting will continue DOMAINfest's
focus on increasing the value of Internet real estate and will offer a rich
setting for extensive networking involving topics relevant not only to domain
investors from Europe, but also from around the world.
Subject-matter experts will be invited to facilitate the networking
sessions on Wednesday, October 6th. The first day will also include a
Moniker(R) Premium Domain Name Auction powered by SnapNames LiveTM
technology. Day 2 will be focused on social activities in and around Prague
designed to provide the kind of shared experiences that can contribute to the
building of long-term relationships between DOMAINfest Europe attendees.
Conference details, including the agenda and speakers, will be released in
June 2010.
"DOMAINfest Europe is an excellent opportunity for European publishers,
online marketers, and domain-related service providers to meet and discuss
ways to increase the value of domain names, which we like to refer to as
Internet real estate, " said Peter Celeste, Senior Vice President of
Oversee.net and General Manager, Monetization Services. "The DomainSponsor
team looks forward to becoming more engaged with the European domain investor
community, and this forum is the perfect venue to exchange ideas and build
relationships. As with all DOMAINfest events, we will be offering affordable
registration rates to encourage maximum participation from a wide range of
talented professionals from both inside and outside our industry."
In January 2010, DomainSponsor hosted a highly successful DOMAINfest
Global(R) conference in Santa Monica, California that attracted more than 600
professionals from a variety of internet-related industries. The conference
included a variety of sessions over a three day period, including a keynote
fireside chat with Tony Hsieh, CEO of Zappos.com. This recent DOMAINfest
conference also featured a first-ever PITCHfest contest, structured
networking sessions, and moderated general sessions with experts from the
world of investment, advertising, and marketing. Videos of each session,
including the keynote fireside chat, can be viewed at
www.domainfest.com.
In November 2009, DomainSponsor announced the establishment of its
European head office in Frankfurt, Germany with Joerg Schnermann as General
Manager.
