ICANN 57 had 3,182 attendees (70% from Asia!)

Today, ICANN published the results of the ICANN57 participant survey, and the technical, demographic and attendance statistics.

There are two reports – the Community Feedback report and the By The Numbers report. These reports summarize the findings from ICANN’s first Annual General Meeting of the new Meeting Strategy.

Report highlights:

  • 3,182 attendees, which broke the previous record of 3,155 for ICANN50 in London
  • 70% of attendees listed their region as Asia (ICANN 57 was held in Hyderabad, India but still this number is quite big)
  • 381 sessions held
  • Top three sessions by attendance:
    • Opening Ceremony
    • Public Forum 1
    • Public Forum 2
  • 942 unique mobile app visits
  • 55,110 schedule website page views
  • Survey respondents were split on whether they want to return to the one-day constituency day structure

  1. So it follows that if 70% of the attendees are from Asia, any claims that the “the Chinese market is dead” are laughable – because we all know that it’s quite an investment to go to conferences.
