DomainX 2019 – Another year, Another Successful Domaining Event

DomainX is one of the first and most celebrated Domaining Event in India, that’s being held every year since 2014.

This was my third time participation at the DomainX event that happened this year on the 3^rd and 4^th of August, 2019 at Eros Hotel, New Delhi.

The participants included Domainers, Entrepreneurs, Companies and people related to the Domain Names / Cloud / Web Hosting Industry from all over India and abroad, also people representing Indian and International organizations.

The 6th edition of the annual DomainX conference at the Eros Hotel was slightly different from its earlier editions, primarily because it was a Two day show.

The First day of the event, August 03 2019 was Conference that included Panels for “Will this Sell” section and “Why Domain Names are Important”. I was a speaker for both the Panels and contributed my best from my experiences in Domaining spanning the last two decades.

The Second day of the event, August 04 2019 was an Industry First for India, a Live Auction of domain names, organized by the DomainX team. Anyone from anywhere in World could list his/her domains on Auction by submitting them at the DomainX Website, www.DomainX.org, the submissions had started one month prior to the event.

The DomainX 2019 show was a sensational success. A great learning and networking experience for all.

For people looking to join the Domaining Industry, such events are a Benison for them. You get to meet a lot of famous people, learn from their experiences, share your thoughts and ideas with them.

Last but not the least, I would like to Congratulate the DomainX team, especially Manmeet Pal Singh (founder of DomainX) and Gaurav Kohli (President, DNOAI), for organizing such an astonishing event related to Domaining, year after year. Manmeet has been in the Domain Industry for past 19 years, one of the most humble and dedicated person I’ve met, also known for his contributions towards the Domaining Industry and ICANN.
