Clarivate domain management experts review recent happenings in the domain industry in the Q2 2021 New gTLD Quarterly Report. Read it now.
In our latest analysis of the domain industry, our new gTLD experts take a deep dive into the electric vehicles (EV) market and its crossover into the new gTLD and .brand space. Combining findings from our Top 100 Best Protected Global Brands and The road ahead: Sustainable vehicles today and in the future reports with new analysis, we uncover new insights and overarching trends in this exciting market.
We also examine current developments in Alexa.com rankings for .brands and other new gTLDs since Q1 of this year as well as relevant ICANN policy activity. We close with need-to-know information about .brand and industry meeting updates.
Global brands, sustainable vehicles and new gTLDs
Our reports on the world’s best protected brands and the sustainable vehicles industry (both linked above), are founded on industry-leading Clarivate patent, trademark, global case law and domain datasets.
Combining the two and viewing them through a lens of brand holder behavior in new gTLDs and .brands offered fresh insight into leading automotive companies’ behavior.

Lastly, we review brand activity and the remaining schedule of industry meetings for 2021. See the new report to find out which ‘left of the dot’ domain label (for example, ‘Clarivate’ in Clarivate.com) broke in to the top three rankings this quarter – ‘mail’ or ‘go?’
