On Tuesday September 1, 2009, Big Room Inc. and IT Trend hosted a Dot Eco consultation in Sao Paulo Brazil. Click here for photos from the event. 

Over seventy representatives from the public, private and non-profit sectors came together to learn about Dot Eco's policies and system in constructive and wide-ranging debate.

Vanda Scartezini, CEO of Altis Services gave the keynote. Jacob Malthouse, Co-founder of Big Room Inc. provided an overview of Big Room's vision for Dot Eco and proposed policies for the domain.

The plenary then broke out into roundtable discussions, which included discussion of the below questions, amongst others:  

1. What are some of the major environmental and sustainability challenges in Brazil?
2. How could .eco work best to address some of these?
3. How can we make .eco useful to you as a company, non-profit, government agency or individual?
4. Feedback on the proposed Dot Eco governing principles.

The meeting report is forthcoming, and will be posted publicly on this site. Thanks to everyone who attended!
