Minds + Machines to Announce New .brand gTLD Pricing at INTA

Minds + Machines is a sponsor of the Trademarks and the Internet conference put on by the International Trademark Association (INTA) in Washington DC this coming week on Wednesday and Thursday (September 21st and 22nd).

New program and pricing for brands

We will be introducing a new program for brand owners who have decided to apply for a new gTLD. Features include:

• Emphasis on a complete partnership. We’ll handle the entire gTLD process, from application to operation, from ICANN questions to technical implementation, without passing you off to other consultants or technical providers.
• Reasonable flat-rate pricing, making it easy to plan, and easy to expand.
• Brand-friendly workflow once you’re up and running, making it easy to ensure that your internal registration policies are followed.
• Expert advice. Did you know that members of our team have handled the domain portfolios of many of the world’s largest companies? (Complete list upon request).
• Do you work with a favorite registrar? We work with them too. Our registry platform is connected with all major registrars, including Mark Monitor, CSC, and others. You won’t have to switch anything if you don’t want to.
• Do you want a private, fully ICANN-compliant registrar for internal use? We supply one as part of the package. We’ll help you get accredited and provide you with a complete registrar solution.

We expect that the conference will be very interesting, with lots of different points of view. ICANN Chairman Steve Crocker will be a speaker, as will many members of ICANN’s Intellectual Property Constituency, along with other prominent IP lawyers.

If you’re going to be at the INTA show, please find us on the floor or at a session. Everyone at the conference will be carrying a very handsome bag with a Minds + Machines logo, but we will be the ones wearing the distinctive Minds + Machines lapel pin.

See you at INTA, and watch this space!
