ICANN chose seven new TLD registry operators in November 2000, many of which were not in formal existence at the time of selection. All of the new TLD registries were able to successfully build and then manage rapidly growing businesses. We feel ISOC’s long heritage and commitment to the Internet, along with Afilias’ experience in registry management services, will be the appropriate foundation for PIR to build a strong and successful business.
