The Geographic Names Panel is responsible in determining if the proposed new gTLD actually represents a geographic name (country or territory name, sub-national geographic name, city name, continent or UN Region) under the standards set forth by Applicant Guidebook. The panel will also evaluate if the geographic name being applied for needs government support and ensures that the supporting documentations from government authorities included in the application are verified and original.[1] [2]
The Economist Intelligence Unit and InterConnect Communications in partnership with the University College London were selected for the Geographic Names Panel on November 2011.[3]
