NamesCon Global 2024 Sent Guests Home with Priceless Connections and Invaluable Information

We're back from Austin, Texas where the 2024 NamesCon Global conference wrapped up an energizing four-day run Saturday (June 8). The event got underway Wednesday (June 4) at the downtown Omni Hotel where business sessions were held over the next three days, followed by a farewell Fun Day  held at Pelons Tex-Mex restaurant Saturday. 

We shot hundreds of photos at the dozens of business sessions and social events held throughout the week and are now putting together a comprehensive start to finish review of the domain industry's biggest annual event for you.  Update: That review has now been published as our latest Cover Story.

With that massive undertaking on the front burner, we will be moving our bi-weekly domain sales report back a couple of days this week only. Instead of coming out Wednesday evening we will release that report Friday evening (June 14).


The Chairman of the NamesCon Advisory Board, Soeren von Varchmin, broke out his favorite cowboy hat to welcome attendees to the 2024 edition of the NamesCon Global conference Wednesday, June 5 in Austin, Texas.

Going into the conference, I had told you that I was especially looking forward to doing three highly anticipated interviews in the Keynote Hall on opening day (Wednesday, June 5). Each featured a superstar domain broker/consultant who has not only rang up hundreds of millions of dollars worth of sales but also helped take the industry to new heights through their innovative contributions to the business.  Clockwise from top left in the photo below, those conversations featured Hilco Digital Assets Managing Director Andrew Miller, Evergreen.com Founder Jen Sale and MediaOptions.com Founder Andrew Rosener.

As I expected, each of those sessions was a special event that provided the audience with invaluable information and extraordinary insight into how some of the most successful people in the industry have put together the amazing track records they have now. It was also a special  treat for all of us to see Jen Sale in person again. Jen is based in Australia and this was the first time in seven years that she has been back in the States for a live event. 

There were so many more highlights I'm looking forward to sharing with you, so I am going to get back to work on those right now!
