2019
began with a historic
change
at the top of the management
team at domain industry powerhouse Sedo,
a pioneering company known for its global
domain sales platform and monetization
services. In the 20 years since Sedo
was founded in 1999, only two people
had served as the company's CEO before Matthias
Conrad made it three on January
1. The European corporation that owns
Sedo, United Internet, didn't have to
look far to find someone they felt
comfortable entrusting Sedo's legacy and
future growth to. Conrad was already
part of the United "family"
having served as a VP at their hosting and
cloud services giant, 1&1
IONOS, for over seven years.
In the more
that 16 years we have been covering Sedo,
we've seen a strong culture of
transparency and teamwork develop there under
the direction of their popular previous CEOs.
Sedo was the first to begin sharing sales
data with us so we could launch our popular weekly
domain sales report and to this
day we have found their management team to
be among the most accessible and responsive
in the industry. We met Conrad for the first
time at the 2019
NamesCon conference in Las
Vegas and took that opportunity to sit
down with him to learn more about his
personal management style and what he has
planned for a company that almost everyone
in the business will interact with at one
time or another.

In the early
days of domain investing, when there was
only a handful of extensions to choose from,
there was an ongoing debate about what was
the best alternative to .com - .net
or .org? I liked the .org more
because it had a clearly defined, positive
identity of its own and a high level of
trust because of the kinds of
registrants that used it most, non-profits and
organizations that had an altruistic
orientation. There were also many
examples of solid aftermarket sales for .org
domains.
That being the
case, I've always paid attention to
developments at Public
Interest Registry (the
non-profit behind .org). A big one occurred
in December when PIR named a new CEO,
domain industry veteran Jon
Nevett. Jon is a co-founder of Donuts,
the world's biggest operator of new gTLD
registries, and he served as the
company's Executive VP for 8 years. Prior to
that, Jon spent more than five years as
Senior Vice President at Network
Solutions, the very first domain name
registrar. Now that Nevett is bringing his
storehouse of knowledge to PIR and .org I
connected with him to see what attracted him
to PIR and .org and what he has planned as
the organization's new leader. Full
