Unified Domain Blocking Service Protecting Brands Online | GlobalBlock
Ben Anderson
This month the GlobalBlock team will be attending the International Trademark Association (INTA) Annual Meeting in Atlanta, Georgia.
INTA is a leading association representing brand owners and IP and trademark professionals and providing opportunities for education and networking, as well as being “a trusted and influential advocate for the economic and social value of brands.”
The Annual Meeting will bring together nearly 10,000 brand protection and IP professionals from around the world to discuss best practice and learn from some of the leading voices in the industry.
At this year’s meeting, GlobalBlock is pleased to be the Platinum sponsor of the Innovation Marketplace Stage.
In addition to being a major sponsor, on Tuesday, May 21, the Brand Safety Alliance’s Tony Kirsch will moderate a panel discussion on ‘Domain Blocking: How it Works and Why You Should Be Using It’ where experts from across the domain industry will explain the role domain names play in brand protection and how domain blocking products like GlobalBlock have evolved to provide greater protection, flexibility and peace of mind. This distinguished panel includes the following speakers:
Stu Homan, Head of Markmonitor
Gretchen Olive, Vice President, Policy & Strategic Account Management, CSC
Stuart Fuller, Chief Commercial Officer, Com Laude
Phil Lodico, Head of GoDaddy Corporate Domains
Brian Lonergan, Global VP of Product Strategy, Identity Digital
Ben Anderson, Product Director, Brand Safety Alliance
This discussion takes place as part of the Business track of sessions, designed to connect IP and non-IP business leaders “who share insights into the key success drivers within corporations or law firms.”
The GlobalBlock team will also be available at booth 448 to meet with attendees and answer any questions about the GlobalBlock service.
If your organization is attending INTA and would like to book a dedicated time to speak with the GlobalBlock team, please contact us via hello@brandsafetyalliance.co. We would be thrilled to meet with you.
GlobalBlock was developed to respond to the challenges with protecting brands in a complex online environment faced by brand owners like those in INTA’s membership. We’re pleased to reconnect with this community in Atlanta to continue these discussions and share the features and benefits of GlobalBlock with those whom it most benefits.
The INTA Annual Meeting runs from May 18-22, 2024.

APTLD90 brought the Asia Pacific domain name community to Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia last month, with ccTLD registries, technical operators, policy specialists and other members of the regional internet community coming together to discuss the challenges shaping the future of the domain name system.

When the domain name industry meets in Bali this October, it will mark a time of significant change and opportunity for the ICANN community. Following the application period for the second round of new gTLDs, ICANN will publish its full list of prospective TLDs and their applicants, likely just prior to its Annual General Meeting from October 17-22.

When the BSA team attended INTA’s TMAP meeting in Berlin last year, much of the conversation around new TLDs and AI-driven domain abuse was anticipatory. The threat was real, but for many trademark professionals, it still felt like something on the horizon.

From the early days of the Brand Safety Alliance, response to our mission from registries, registrars and brands in the Asia Pacific region has been strong. Many registries have chosen to participate in GlobalBlock and are recognizing the benefits of stronger brand and IP defenses in improving registry health and protecting internet users by proactively stopping abuse before it occurs. In the coming months, our commitment to this community ramps up through several events in partnership with the Asia Pacific Top-Level Domain Association (APTLD). The BSA’s Leona Chen-Birkner will present a webinar to APTLD members, before giving a presentation at the upcoming APTLD90 meeting in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia in September.
