The Domain pulse is the most important event in the German-speaking world for current topics and trends associated with domain names.
The 9th Domain pulse - organised by DENIC - took place in Hamburg on February 13 and 14, 2012.
Which social structures will be challenged by the growing digitalization of all fields of life? How does the conception of man change and which skills will be needed in the future, in an increasingly networked world? Will it be possible to maintain the open, decentralized character of the Internet or will a top-down controlled Internet take its place? Why does the planned international copyright convention ACTA cause a stir in the Internet community? Do we really have to fear that net communication will be increasingly controlled? The specialist conference provided interesting statements, forecasts and answers to these and other highly topical issues. More than 350 congress visitors listened with high interest to the lectures and international-expert panel discussions.
