While
I was in Australia last week for the T.R.A.F.F.I.C.
Down Under conference, Sedo's Tiffany
Cuddihy sent me some info and a link to a photo

CEO Tim Schumacher welcomes
attendees to the 2008 SedoPro Partner
Forum held on the French Riviera Oct. 26-28 |
Partner Forum
that was held at the Royal Riviera resort
on the French Riviera Oct. 26-28. I had
planned to attend the event but the dates wound up
conflicting with a trip I already had scheduled to
Philadelphia for Parent's Weekend at the University
of Pennsylvania where my daughter is a
senior.
I really hated to
miss the Sedo event because the SedoPro Partner
Forum they staged last
year at the Mohonk Resort in New
York's Hudson Valley was one of the most
enjoyable meetings I have ever attended. I'm sure
those who made the trip to France for this year's
event will say the same thing.
Cuddihy said domain industry professionals
from around the globe participated in discussions on
the marketplace roadmap and best practices and techniques for success.
Attendees were provided with one-on-one consulting sessions
with Sedo experts, while also getting to enjoy a
vacation experience |
that included a
casino night, yacht sailing race and a chauffeured
antique car tour of the French Riviera.

The event also featured
informative presentations and workshops on topics
including domain monetization, proven methods and tips for
selling domains to the corporate world, pricing
methodology and negotiation techniques. Sedo’s
COO and general counsel Jeremiah Johnston, who delivered a speech on protecting domains in a hostile legal environment,
said: “We were pleased to once again bring this comprehensive forum to domain entrepreneurs and developers who gained invaluable insights on today’s critical industry issues, and leveraged unique opportunities to network with colleagues and Sedo experts. We look forward to continuing this tradition, to further establish Sedo’s valued relationships with our clients.”
