CANN UASG White Paper Announcement: End of Week Report
14 April 2017

 

 

 

Summary

As we close out launch week, we’ve seen 27 pieces of coverage globally (Australia, India, Italy, Jordan, Nigeria, Russia, UAE, UK and US), including a piece that was just published today in Bloomberg BNA[bna.com], a top business publication in the U.S, as well as a hit in Gadgets Now[gadgetsnow.com], the technology destination of The Times of India. (If you would like to listen to Ram’s interview with the reporter Kim Aora, you can do so by clicking here[dropbox.com].)

 

We expect additional coverage to be forthcoming over the next several days and weeks. We’re continuing to work with the reporter from MIT Technology Review, who expressed interest in writing. A recent Q&A interview with CNews Russia and ICANN’s Michael Yakushev, VP Stakeholder Engagement for Eastern Europe and Central Asia should also be published in the near future.

 

Additionally, we are continuing to follow up with WSJ CIO Journal as a warm lead, as well as other target publications. The white paper provides a solid proof point with which the teams can continue to have ongoing conversations with press.

 

Finally, the press release was picked up 127 times, reaching an estimated audience of nearly 7.3 million (full Marketwired report attached for reference).
