Cairo Selected to Host 33rd International Public Meeting

16 May 2008

MARINA DEL REY, Calif.: Cairo, Egypt will host the Internet Corporation 
for Assigned Names and Numbers' 33rd International Public Meeting from 
2-7 November 2008.

At its 28 April 2008 meeting, the ICANN Board accepted the proposal to 
host the meeting put forward by National Telecom Regulatory Authority of 
Egypt.

"This is going to be an exciting meeting for ICANN with it marking our 
10th anniversary and it's fitting that it is in Egypt," said Paul 
Levins, ICANN's Executive Officer and Vice President - Corporate 
Affairs. "Egypt, with other nations and the technical community, has 
played a key role in moving Internationalized Domain Names forward."

The meeting venue will be the Intercontinental - Cairo Citystars. The 
website with information on the ICANN hotel room rate and booking 
instructions will be posted soon.

Each year ICANN holds three meetings in different regions around the 
world. These meetings constitute an essential part of ICANN's global 
consensus-building and outreach efforts. The ICANN Meetings Committee 
sets the regions in which ICANN will hold its meetings. Proposals are 
then solicited from organizations interested in hosting the ICANN Meeting.
