James Bladel Elected Chair GNSO

GoDaddy’s VP of Policy James Bladel has been elected as Chair of ICANN’s GNSO Council.

The GNSO Council returned Bladel as Chair with a unanimous vote with the results being announced this morning.

Last month the GNSO Council Chair elections concluded without the body being able to choose a new Chair.

Mr Bladel has been with GoDaddy since 2007 and has been the “face” of GoDaddy at ICANN over the last few years.
