auDA to Host APTLD91 in Brisbane, Feb, 2027

auDA has been selected to host the 91st APTLD Members Meeting (APTLD91) in Brisbane, Australia, in February 2027. The meeting will bring together ccTLD managers, registrars, and registry service providers from across the Asia Pacific to collaborate on critical technical, operational, and policy matters.

Australia is a great destination to advance APTLD’s strategic outreach, particularly into the Pacific, where many APTLD Ordinary Members are based. The location supports regional inclusion and deeper engagement.

auDA has been an active contributor to the APTLD community, participating in working groups, delivering training, and sharing knowledge at APTLD meetings. Its commitment to strengthening the ccTLD space aligns closely with APTLD’s mission.

auDA CEO Bruce Tonkin said: “auDA is thrilled to work with APTLD to host their 91st forum in Australia in early 2027. Strengthening the Asia Pacific domain name community and supporting capacity building in the sector are core to auDA’s commitment to drive positive impact in the ccTLD community and across the internet ecosystem.”

APTLD General Manager Phavanhna Douangboupha welcomed the collaboration, emphasizing the opportunity for productive engagement and knowledge exchange.

More updates on APTLD91 will be available at APTLD.org.
