ICANN returning to Puerto Rico
ICANN has put Puerto Rico back on its list of future meeting venues after cancelling this year’s trip to San Juan due to the pandemic.
The Org will summon the true believers to the Puerto Rico Convention Center from March 2 to March 7, 2024, for ICANN 79, it announced this week.
That’s two years after the cancelled meeting from this March, which ultimately went ahead online only.
It will be six years after ICANN last visited the island, in the wake of Hurricane Maria.
It will be ICANN’s third visit to the country, a US territory. It first held a meeting there in 2007.
ICANN was forced to cancel a Puerto Rico visit in 2016 due to an outbreak of the Zika virus (remember that?).
Of the in-person meetings canceled due to the Covid-19 pandemic, now all have been rescheduled or have already taken place.
