Registration for ICANN Applicant Support Program (ASP) Pro Bono and Mentorship Service Providers |
Introduction
If you are a service provider who is interested in providing pro bono or mentorship services to supported applicants in the New gTLD Program: Next Round, please use this form to indicate the services yourself or your organization is able and willing to provide to supported applicants. Please note that this is an initiative as part of the Applicant Support Program (ASP) for the New gTLD Program: Next Round. The ASP is intended to make applying for a new gTLD or operating a registry more accessible to applicants who would be otherwise unable due to financial and resource constraints. The ASP is for gTLD applicants seeking financial and non-financial support. Part of the package of support for supported applicants is access to pro bono (volunteer) service providers* that have agreed to volunteer their services to supported applicants. ICANN will publicly provide a list of those ASP pro bono vendors, who are encouraged to prioritize supported ASP applicants over general applicants to the New gTLD Program: Next Round. The application submission period for ASP is expected to open on 19 November 2024.
