Dan Schindler of Donuts, the company that raise 200 million in investment capital, will be speaking at a webinar to discuss the new gtld’s the company is and has launched. Dan was CEO of CentralNIC where he hired a good number of registrars to resell second-level names. Donuts is a pioneer in the new gtld space with extensions such as .services, .camera, .gallery and many others, I was personally contacted by the company in an effort to help push the new gtld’s into auction and place generics in front of investors that remain outside of the sunrise period.
