The
Farewell Breakfast that was open
from 8am-11am Wednesday morning was
a great way for guests to
fuel up for their journeys home and
say a leisurely goodbye to friends,
old and new, over a last cup of
coffee and bite to eat.

feels welcome and right at home as industry newcomer
Steven Verdugo (son of veteran domain investor/developer
George Verdugo) found out at the
Farewell Breakfast Wednesday morning.
Barbara made sure Steven went back
to Kansas City with a very
positive impression of the domain
business and the people in it.

THE Domain Conference's three
Co-Founders - Howard &
Barbara Neu and their son Ray
Dillman Neu - were delighted
with the support and positive feedback
they received from guests and
sponsors at their first solely owned
show. As most of you know, all three
were instrumental in staging the
pioneering T.R.A.F.F.I.C.
Conference for 10 years. When
Co-Founder Rick Schwartz
decided to retire after last year's 10th
Anniversary edition of
T.R.A.F.F.I.C. the Neus
decided to carry on with a new
show of their own - one they
have put their personal stamp on
with a formula everyone we talked
with agreed was a winner.
They
have already begun planning for
their 2016 show - most likely
at the same venue as it was a hit
with attendees, offering excellent accommodations,
good food and a great location - all
at a very affordable price. I
was also impressed by the fresh,
informative programming and a
much larger group of sponsors
in the Exhibit Hall than we have
seen in recent years. New gTLD
registries had an especially high
profile with lead sponsor .CLUB,
Donuts
Inc., Minds+Machines
and others turning out in a big way
to support the event. The
quality of attendees (including
veterans and ambitious newcomers alike)
did not go unnoticed either. For
their first time out with TDC I
don't see how things could have gone
much better for the Neus, a feeling
reflected in their thumbs up
as the curtain came down Wednesday.
