[bc-gnso] Adam Palmer pre-election comment

[Adam Palmer <Adam_Palmer@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear BC Colleagues,

This is an important time for the BC to have a strong and clear voice within 
ICANN.   For the last 10 years I have had broad ICANN related experience as a 
lawyer, .ORG Registry policy counsel, and brand protection advisor at 
Cyveillance.  I have already held leadership positions within the ICANN 
community including serving as elected legal chair of the RISG group which is a 
leading voice for security within ICANN.  I have developed the vital personal 
contacts and credibility necessary to successfully advance BC positions.  I am 
fully prepared to “hit the ground running” and provide leadership as a BC 
Councilor.

My vision is for the BC to provide a leadership voice for improving e-commerce 
security and integrity.  As the Lead Cyber Security Advisor at Symantec (the 
Fortune 500 market leader in internet security software) I am well positioned 
to be an ambassador to the business community to encourage outreach and 
participation.

While my personal interest are primarily security related, I am prepared to 
represent all members and to advance their interests in new gTLD and brand 
protection.  I would emphasize collaboration and consultation with members to 
assure that I advocate positions that are fully supported by the BC membership.

Please contact me at any time at +1-703-232-4914 or 
adam_palmer@xxxxxxxxxxxx<mailto:adam_palmer@xxxxxxxxxxxx> with any questions.


Best regards,

Adam Palmer
Lead Cyber Security Advisor
Symantec
