The VENUE: Not a Boring Hotel Lobby
The Ice Palace Studios beautifully combines the charm of 1920s historic elegance with the vibrancy of modern creativity.
Originally an ice manufacturing plant and then a film studio, its rich history now provides a unique and inspiring setting for a wide range of events. Its legacy extends far beyond the stunning spaces. This venue has been the backdrop for events that have shaped cultural history.
Set in the heart of Miami’s cultural history and just moments from the legendary Wynwood Walls, CloudFest Americas and Ice Palace Studios come together in a collaboration we didn’t know we needed.
namescon global meets cloudfest AMERICAs
We bring together the CloudFest Americas and NamesCon communities, which makes perfect sense! Here’s what you stand to gain by connecting with the leaders of the domain name industry:
Hosters already own millions of domain names, which the NamesCon community of brokers and expert investors can help you turn into a profit center.
Learn how domain traffic, parking, and sales work in the real world, straight from the people who created those business models.
Partner with platforms that work with premium domains that are seemingly off the market—offering seemingly impossible extra value to your customers and winning enhanced loyalty,.
.
During CloudFest’s legendary social events, you’ll also connect with up to 1,000 domain name industry professionals—from registries and registrars to brokers, entrepreneurs, and startups: bring more business cards than you think you’ll need.
