"Plan Bee, LLC, the applicant for the “.build” gTLD (the “Registry”) intends to develop and serve the global construction industry, as well as all other industries that engage in any form of “building”, by enhancing communication, access to relevant information, and searchability... The construction industry alone presently employs over 110 Million people globally. Economists value this global industry at upwards of 7 Trillion Dollars per year, accounting for approximately 9% of the world’s GDP.

" The Registry may partner with construction associations around the globe to attract potential registrants, users and others. Following a Sunrise and Landrush period, the Registry intends to make domains available to all interested parties willing to complete the registry’s application process and comply with registry policies and ICANN requirements. Registration requests for available names will be allocated by the Registry through accredited registrars on a first-come, first-served basis, subject to the Registry policies and ICANN requirements."[2]
