Brussels, 30 September 2011 – The .eu Italian team is attending the IAB Forum 2011 event in Milan (12-13 October 2011) to continue to raise the visibility of the .eu top-level domain in Italy.
In Italy, there are currently more than 197 000 .eu domain names registered to Italian businesses, organisations and individuals. In the year to Q2 2011, Italy saw a 5.1% growth in .eu registrations. The .eu extension is ideally suited for businesses with cross-border operations, enabling companies to express the fact that they are open for business in other European Union markets.
The .eu registry, EURid, is exhibiting at stand A2 where staff will be available to answer questions about the benefits of being online with .eu.
Giovanni Seppia, EURid’s External Relations Manager, is available for press interviews on 13 October. Daniela Medda and Chiara Panichi, EURid’s Liaison Managers for Italy, are available for interviews throughout the convention. For more information, please contact press@eurid.eu.
