Managing Intellectual Property, in association with Finnegan, has released an article based on a recently hosted discussion regarding ICANN\'s approved plans to open the domain name system to an unlimited number of generic top-level domains (gTLDs) and how the Implementation Recommendation Team\'s (IRT) recommendation will affect brand owners.
Topics included the main concerns with new gTLDs from a brand owner\'s perspective, the role of IRT, enforcement issues, and navigating the new domain name space. Finnegan partners David Kelly and Jonathan Gelchinsky participated with J Scott Evans of Yahoo! Inc., Elisabeth Roth Escobar of Marriott International, Inc., Erik Wilbers of WIPO Arbitration and Mediation Center, and Kurt Pritz of ICANN for the roundtable.
