Staff Changes in ICANN Executive Team

March 31, 2020 by Michele Neylon

ICANN announced earlier today that there has been a change in their Executive team.

Cyrus Namazi who headed up the Global Domains Division (GDD) has left the organisation.

Theresa Swinehart, Senior Vice President, Multistakeholder Strategy & Strategic Initiatives, will be in charge of GDD for the interim.

That sounds like they’ll either be promoting someone internally to takeover the role full-time or potentially hiring a replacement.
