Following on a very successful event in January 2009 (videos and slides of the sessions are still available), which was supported by funding from the ISOC Community Grants Programme, the Irish National IPv6 Task Force is hosting another all-day summit in Dublin Castle, Ireland on Wednesday, 19 May 2010.
This year’s event is designed to increase awareness amongst both public and private sectors on the merits and issues related to the depletion of the IPv4 address space, and the economic impact this has on the Irish Economy. Discover why it is a matter of necessity for Ireland to embrace the early adoption of IPv6.
The keynote speakers are Brian Carpenter (University of Auckland) and Geoff Huston (APNIC). A distinguished panel of speakers and panellists includes: Dennis Jennings (ICANN), Daniel Karrenberg (ISOC and RIPE), Mat Ford (ISOC). The talks will provide global perspectives on IPv6 adoption and challenges, with some localisation to specific issues in Ireland. MÃcheál Ó Foghlú who is Executive Director Research at the TSSG, Waterford IT will chair the event.
This event is supported by the TSSG in Waterford IT, HEAnet, DCENR, Science Foundation Ireland, and the Irish National IPv6 Centre.
