ICA
Announces Location for 2024 Annual Meeting in Las
Vegas - Early Bird Ticket Offer Ends Sept.
10 |
The
Internet
Commerce Association
(ICA) has finalized the dates and location for
their 2024
Annual Member Meeting in Las Vegas.
The dates were actually set in June when the ICA
sent out a note to members to let them know they
should keep January 17-20, 2024 clear on
their calendar. They completed the picture over
the weekend when they confirmed the event will
return to Resorts World, where their very
well received 2023
Meeting was held. |
|
While
the core of the meeting will be two full business
days, Thursday and Friday (January 18 & 19),
The ICA will again bookend those with activities for
those arriving early (January 17) or staying over a
day (January 20). The full preliminary agenda we
received looks like this:
-
Wednesday,
January 17th: For those who will be
arriving early or are already in town for the Affiliate
Summit, we will arrange a low-key
evening of dinner and drinks.
-
Thursday,
January 18th: We kick off with
registration and go straight into group
activities during the day, followed by an
evening opening dinner reception.
-
Friday,
January 19th: Get ready for informative
sessions, interactive panels and guru tables
during the day, and look forward to our evening
dinner reception.
-
Saturday,
January 20th: For those staying through
Saturday, we have bonus sessions and activities
planned. We are also considering organizing a
show or dinner for the evening if a considerable
number of our attendees decide to stay.

In a
related note, Domain Name Wire's
Andrew Allemann and I will both
be at the ICA meeting again in
January and hope to see you there.
As it happens we recently got
together on a call to record episode
#451 of Andrew's popular DNW
podcast that he just
released today. In the new show, we
talk about the domain name market
so far in 2023 and compare the
current sales charts vs. those from
last year and run through the top
public sales of 2023. We also
discuss some of the biggest trends
in domain sales, including the artificial
intelligence boom that has been
fueling .ai sales.
Andrew
also includes current news on a
variety of topics on each of his
podcasts. In this episode he covers Namecheap
badges, CBS, CentralNic
and more. |
