Mission

The mission of the Business Constituency is to ensure that:

• the Constituency fully represents the views of the Internet business user community,
• ICANN policy positions are consistent with the development of business via an Internet that is stable, secure and reliable while promoting consumer confidence,
• ICANN policy positions derive from broad stakeholder participation in a common forum for suppliers and users.

Members of the Business Constituency use the Internet to conduct business.

The Business Constituency is a constituency representing customers of providers of connectivity, domain names, IP addresses, protocols and other services related to electronic commerce in its broad sense.

BC members contribute as:

• participants on the BC e-mail list to learn about and debate issues
• participants on telephone conferences to reach consensus on key issues
• participants at physical meetings coincident with ICANN global meetings
• issue managers on specific topics
• bridges for information flow between other GNSO constituencies
