GMO Registry, Inc. is established
In June 2008 the Board of ICANN, the organization that oversees the Internet's addressing system, approved a recommendation substantially relaxing the rules for introducing TLDs.
Technical and operational expertise are required in applying for new gTLDs and providing domain registry management services. GMO Internet Group offers credibility as the first accredited ICANN registrar in the Asian region, along with a proven track record managing approximately one million active domains as one of the largest registrars in Japan. In light of the new gTLD Program, GMO Internet has established GMO Registry, Inc. to offer new gTLD application, registry operation, and marketing support services to corporations and government bodies. Leveraging GMO Internet Group strengths as a market leader and ICANN accredited registrar GMO Registry will launch Japan's first new gTLD business.
We will also offer operational and marketing services for ccTLDs.
