Betreff: [EURO-Discuss] Welcome Matthias Langenegger to the ICANN At-Large Staff



Dear all:

It is my pleasure to introduce you to Matthias Langenegger, who has 
just joined the At-Large staff in the Policy Unit as At-Large 
Coordination Officer. He'll be helping support the global At-Large 
community in scheduling, meeting support and logistics, servicing 
information requests, minuting meetings, and helping keep the websites 
and community communications tools (like the new membership system) up-
to-date amongst other essential tasks.

Many of you may know Matthias from the IGF Secretariat, where he 
interned throughout much of 2007 -  while there he assisted in the 
preparations for the Rio de Janeiro Internet Governance Forum in 
November 2007, coordinating the sessions schedule and providing 
logistical coordination. He also assisted in the assessment process 
for the different workshop and best practice proposals.

Before and during his university education, he worked in different 
office environments such as banks and a small language school. He is 
originally from the German-speaking part of Switzerland and is a 
native German speaker who is fluent in English and French. He also 
speaks fair Catalan and Spanish having lived in Barcelona for a year.

Matthias recently graduated from the Graduate Institute of 
International Relations at the University of Geneva and holds an MA in 
international relations. He lives in Geneva. Continuing the tradition 
of very long email addresses amongst the At-Large staff, he can be 
reached at matthias.langenegger at icann.org (or, in short form,  matthias at icann.org
).

For those who, like me, often produce inaccurate pronunciations of 
others' names, his forename is pronounced "muhteeahs" :)

Please welcome him aboard. We're very glad to have him!
