EURid teams up with Savethedogs.eu at SMAU Milano 2014 (Stand A14)

Brussels, 21 October 2014 – EURid will be among the key players at SMAU which takes place from Wednesday the 22nd to Friday the 24th of October 2014 at FieramilanoCity in Milan, Italy.

With over 50,000 expected visitors and a highly anticipated workshop and conference programme, SMAU is Italy’s biggest event featuring the most innovative national and international ICT, digital brands and solutions over a three day period.

EURid will be promoting .eu as the obvious choice for start-ups and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) aiming at extending their operations beyond national borders and taking full advantage of the European market.

At SMAU, EURid will be proud to showcase the success story of ‘Save the Dogs and other Animals’, a volunteering association committed to the protection of animals and the promotion of a culture that recognizes that animals have rights too. The team behind savethedogs.eu will join EURid staff at stand A14 to present its activities and initiatives.

The objective is to raise awareness about the Internet as a place where private citizens and associations alike can make their voices heard. EURid also wishes to show the importance of corporate social responsibility through this initiative.

For a very long time, being socially responsible has been a top priority for the .eu Registry, which is particularly committed to environmental sustainability. EURid is the first domain registry in Europe to become registered by the EU Eco-Management and Audit Scheme (EMAS), a goal achieved in 2012.

The team from EURid will consist of External Relations Manager Giovanni Seppia, the Liaison Manager for Italy Chiara Panichi and EURid’s Marketing Coordinator Daniela Medda, all of whom look forward to welcoming those participating and attending SMAU at their stand.
