*Invitation to National ISOC-CH Event on Thu Nov 13th at 6 p.m. in Bern*
We, the Internet Society Switzerland Chapter (ISOC-CH), are happy to
invite you to our National Event 2014 on a currently heavily debated matter
"What happens to IANA?" or in other words "How much control over the
Internet will the US government maintain in future?"
*Speakers include:*
- *Konstantinos Komaitis*,* Internet Society (ISOC*), Policy Advisor
- *Massimiliano Stucchi* from *RIPE NCC*
- *Brian Trammell*, member of the *IAB (Internet Architecture Board)*
*Introduction:*
For a long time core functions of the Internet, such as the the overall
administration of Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers
(IANA), have been under supervision of the US government. Recently, the US
government announced its intent to transition part of its oversight role to
the global multistakeholder community. This announcement attracted a great
deal of attention and has sparked some very lively discussions. You can
find more information on ISOC’s IANA transition website
<http://www.internetsociety.org/ianaxfer>.
We invite you to an event where the IANA transition process will be
explained by experts. You will also get an update on its status and other
interesting topics regarding ICANN and IANA.
*Details and registration:*
The event will take place on Nov 13th, 2014 at 6 p.m. in the University of
Bern. Please find more information and registration (spaces are limited /
