*Invitation to Join Strategic Outlook Trends Identification Session

24 March 2020

LOS ANGELES – 23 March 2020 – The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names
and Numbers (ICANN) invites the community to participate in an open
strategic outlook trends session to help ICANN continue to be aware of
trends that affect its mission and mandate.

With the rapid evolution of the Internet and variety of influencing
factors, trends can change rapidly and in unexpected ways. The purpose of
these open sessions is to build on past trend identification work in order
to update our shared understanding of opportunities and challenges relevant
to ICANN's current and future strategy. In order to support broad community
input, ICANN will hold two remote sessions in addition to stakeholder
group-specific sessions. (Check with your community group for date and time
of your stakeholder group-specific session.)

Join this important discussion, all are welcome! Please note that
participation will be *limited to 40 participants* per session, *on a first
come, first serve basis* due to the breakout format. Sessions will be held
in English. Learn more about the remote sessions in this briefing paper

Background

The Strategic Outlook Program
<https://newsalerts.icann.org/hPg1p0R00C0002dmN020Ea8> is a joint effort
between the ICANN organization, the community and the Board. New trends or
shifts in existing trends impacting the operating plans (five-year or
annual), and/or budget, will be factored into the annual iteration of those
plans as appropriate. Significant shifts could also result in adjustments
to the strategic plan.
About ICANN

ICANN's mission is to help ensure a stable, secure, and unified global
Internet. To reach another person on the Internet, you need to type an
address – a name or number – into your computer or other device. That
address must be unique so computers know where to find each other. ICANN
helps coordinate and support these unique identifiers across the world.
ICANN was formed in 1998 as a not-for-profit public-benefit corporation
with a community of participants from all over the world.
