ICANN holds three public meetings each calendar year in different regions of the globe. ICANN meetings are a central principle of ICANN's multistakeholder model because they provide a venue for progressing policy work, conducting outreach, exchanging best practices, conducting business deals, interacting among members of the ICANN community, including Board and staff, and learning about ICANN. These meetings are the focal point for individuals and representatives of the different ICANN stakeholder groups to introduce and discuss issues related to ICANN policy. ICANN meetings are free and open to everyone, and participants may attend in person or remotely.
