Webinar: Preparing Your Brand ahead of the 2026 new gTLD Reveal Day
What is Covered in the Webinar?
The ICANN new gTLD application window closed on the 12th of August 2026, with more than 1,600 primary string applications reportedly submitted.
Once the full ICANN list is published (14th October 2026), companies will need to assess whether any applied-for string is an exact match, sufficiently similar, to an existing company, brand or product name, and determine whether action is required. This includes having a clear, documented domain name policies in place covering:
- Which domains they intend to register defensively
- Where domain blocking opportunities may be appropriate
- Which strings and domains require ongoing monitoring
- Who is responsible for making registration and enforcement decisions
