The Internet is rapidly expanding beyond.com,.org,.edu and other established top level domain names. In late 2013, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) initiated the launch of nearly 2,000 new generic top level domains (gtlds) such as.app,.auto,.music and.shopping, as well as brand- and geography-specific domains. To date, nearly 6 million new domain registrations have occurred, and about 20,000 additional new domains are purchased each day. In this competitive environment, businesses need to be proactive in protecting their valuable brands. Porter Wright attorneys help businesses register and protect their trademarks and service marks, create strategies and processes for rolling out new gtlds, and develop protection plans that guide businesses efforts to thoroughly safeguard their valuable brands. READ MORE New generic top level domains are here to stay what can brand owners do to protect their portfolio's value in this new era? CONTACT Robert J. Morgan [email protected] Melissa A.
