First of all, I want to wish a happy new year to my readers and inform on a few things that I am launching:
- A new gTLD study which answers that question: "why would I create my .BRAND new gTLD?"
- A new "Tools" page at Jovenet Consulting: this is a page that I will keep filling with new documents and tools for future new gTLD applicants;
- A French version of Jovenet Consulting: this is not a very funny thing to do but there is an increasing demand in France for .BRAND info and since Jovenet Consulting is based in Paris...it makes sense. I am working on this at the moment.
I am also looking for a new major sponsor: I have a preference for a back-end registry solution provider or a registry but I am also interested in being sponsored by a corporate registrar or a law firm.
Objectives for future round(s):
- Create the best .BRAND new gTLD offer on the market;
- Make the Jovenet Consulting network the #1 new gTLD information provider;
- Find a partner to work with: working alone ".sucks".
- .AFRICA could go live after court refuses injunction;
