Join the Asian and international domain name industry in Bangkok for two days of business conversations, market insight and new connections.
Domain Summit Asia 2026 takes place on 6–7 December at Holiday Inn Bangkok Sukhumvit by IHG, with an optional cultural and networking programme planned for 8 December. The summit brings together domain investors, registrars, registries, hosting companies, technology providers and entrepreneurs to explore opportunities across Asia and the changes reshaping the global domain business.
Following its inaugural edition in Hong Kong, Domain Summit Asia moves to Bangkok with a programme centred on two themes: Asia’s domain markets and the growing role of AI and autonomous agents in the industry.
6 December: Asia’s Domain Markets and Business Opportunities
The first day examines where domain growth is coming from, how regional markets are evolving and what these developments mean for businesses operating internationally.
7 December: AI, Agents and the Domain Industry
The second day explores how AI is changing the way domains are registered, managed, valued and sold, alongside the practical and legal questions that come with greater automation.
Time to Meet and Do Business
The programme makes room for conversations throughout both days, with networking lunches, exhibition sessions, hosted discussion tables and private business meetings.
Whether you are looking for a registrar or registry partner, exploring a new market, developing a technology integration or discussing domain investment opportunities, the summit offers a focused setting to meet relevant people and take those conversations further.
Attendance is intentionally limited to support direct introductions and meaningful discussions.

Speakers currently listed include Edmon Chung of DotAsia Organisation, Lars Jensen of ShortDot, Helen Ho of @nicenic, Hiren Shah, the founder of Vertoz, Artur Suvanov of aHOST, Armand Brahaj of Osir.com, Andriy Khvetkevych of NicNames and NIC.UA, and @DNF Admin (Prashanna) as well as @birajst (Biraj).
