Why doesn't this event take place in the same place as AFRINIC?

What is the Africa DNS Forum ?

The Africa DNS forum is  a three-day event that will bring together African registries; African ICANN accredited registrars, resellers, infrastructure service and solution providers; as well as entrepreneurs interested in investing in the African Domain Name Space. There will be interesting discussions highlighting opportunities in the African Domain name industry as well as networking sessions between registrars, resellers, and the registries.

Who should attend?

Registries, registrars, and resellers in Africa as well as entrepreneurs interested in investing in the African Domain Name Space to collaborate and share on how to advance the domain name business in Africa.

Why should you attend?

According to the domain name industry brief, there were 265 million domains registered globally in the third quarter of 2013. The base ccTLD registrations were 119.5 million. The largest top level domains by zone size in the third quarter of 2013 included .com, .tk, .de, .net, .uk, .org, .cn, .info, .ru, and .nl. None of the African registries appeared in the top ten. The largest ccTLD in Africa by zone size did not surpass the 1 million mark during the same period. The forum will focus on how to monetize the Africa Domain Name Space to allow for faster growth on par with the rest of the world.
