A NamesCon 360° email hit my inbox moments ago, and it appears their first all-digital event will occur online for just $59. If you’re an individual or small business that’s new to the industry, NamesCon is giving away a set number of limited passes.

The conference will run from Sept 9th-11th, and aims to provide great live and on-demand content from investors, industry experts and key industry players from around the globe.

NamesCon Global has concluded, and was considered a success by most everyone attending.

Austin was well received by most attendees. Sessions and events were well attended. It was great having GoDaddy CEO Aman Bhutani present to inspire and empower everyone for future success.

But now that NamesCon Global is behind us, here are 5 actions to consider executing prior to the next NamesCon Global:

Time flies when you’re having fun, making friends, learning new thoughts, and the list goes on.

It’s hard to believe that NamesCon Global was just kicking off about this time last week.

So many connections made, both new and old. A plethora of content presented across three days — Day one, Day two, and Day three. Too many meetings, dining dates, and parties to capture.

It was only fitting to close out NamesCon Global with a Fun Day at Banger’s Sausage House & Beer Garden.

Day one of NamesCon was all about settling into the conference and venue layout, meeting new people, and finding your lane of expertise and interest amongst the many information-packed sessions.

With Day one jitters behind us, Day two of NamesCon was about going deeper in old and newly found relationships, empowering everyone to do what it is they do well as presentd by Aman Bhutani — CEO of GoDaddy, and of course, awards and the much anticipated live domain auction.

As for Day three of NamesCon, it too would move the bar of excellence higher, especially pertaining to generational domain investing and prudent estate planning for domain portfolios.

But more on that in a moment.

First things first, Day three of NamesCon kicked off with a packed Keynote Hall eagerly waiting to hear from James Booth about his winding domain investing journey as a domain broker — “Phenomenal Keynote: Fireside Discussion with James Booth of Phenom.com”.

Day one of NamesCon is in the books while day two has brought a full crowd in attendance for one of the most anticipated keynote addresses to be presented at this year’s NamesCon.

But more on that in a moment.

Day two also brings with it awards, the long-standing charity auction and one of the most exhilarating domain auctions on the planet.

1000+ attendees, sponsors, exhibitors and everyone in between descended upon the domain industry’s largest conference — NamesCon Global: The Domain Economic Forum — debuting a change of venue  at the Omni Downtown Hotel in Austin, Texas.

From the newest of new to the oldest of old, anticipation and excitement built as the Keynote Hall filled to standing room only awaiting the commencement of 7th Annual Welcome Keynote.

Excitement and anticipation greatly build, and could be felt on this beautiful 70 degree day here in Austin, Texas, home of NamesCon 2020.

I ventured downtown after a late lunch meeting to take full advantage of pre-registration — securing my conference badge and additional details, and getting acclimated with conference layout.
