ICANN is actively soliciting expressions of interest from organisations seeking to host the first ICANN International Public Meeting in 2009. ICANN has previously agreed upon the following location and date:

The specifications outlined in the Request for Proposals detail the estimated required elements of an ICANN meeting and the responsibilities of the hosting organisation. ICANN will consider all elements of the meeting in making its decision but will pay special attention to the provision of basic/minimum requirements as specified in the RFP. Any questions on these requirements or other aspects of the call for expressions should be addressed to the ICANN Meeting Staff.

Expression of interest to host the Latin America meeting in 2009 will be accepted through 30 April 2008. Please complete the RFP Submissions Form [PDF, 176K] and return it to meeting@icann.org.
