[Gnso-sc-budget] strategic plan - Enhance ICANN’s understanding of the domain name marketplace

[Ayden Férdeline]

Dear all,

Strategic Objective 5.1 is "Enhance ICANN’s understanding of the domain name marketplace."

Our current response to this objective is:

- While market trends should be considered in organizational guidance, it should be noted that market trends are only relevant insofar as they overlap with the current mission of ICANN, and as they affect ICANN’s stability and resilience.

During today's call, concerns were expressed that this may not be entirely accurate. Accordingly, I am proposing that we re-word this point so to read:

- While market trends should be considered in organizational guidance, it should be noted that market trends are only relevant insofar as they 1) overlap with the current mission of ICANN, 2) as they affect ICANN’s stability and resilience, and 3) impact ICANN’s stream of revenue.

Edits are in bold for emphasis only. Can you please advise if you have any concerns with this new language. Thank you.

Kind regards,
Ayden Férdeline
