REAL NAME DOMAIN FOR
EVERYONE, EVERYTHING

ABOUT NETPIA
THE “INTERNET UTOPIA“

Established by Pan Jeong Lee in July 10, 1995 as Internet Business Institute (IBI), the company raised awareness of the importance of domain name registration and saved so many Korean business owners from cybersquatters. With headquarters in Seoul, Netpia is the first company in the world to offer an internet real name domain solution for brand and company names.

With its real name domain solutions in each country’s national language, Netpia has actively helped in bridging the digital gap by enabling global users, especially non-English speakers, to efficiently use the once English-only URL.

With the guidance of Dr. Kilnam Cheon, the father of Internet in Asia, Pan Jeong Lee presented the “ml.ml” and “multilingual” approach at the APRICOT meeting held in Singapore in February 1999 and on September 1st of the same year, the world’s first available commercial service of ‘ML’ (now IDN) was launched and ML.ML was offered as a free service. Netpia has initiated efforts toward national language services in international conferences, where Internet Address resources

are administered, such as APAN, WIPO, ICANN and IETF. It also presented its flagship service before the international IT professionals at the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS), an event sponsored by the United Nations in 2003 and 2005.

Netpia aims to provide everyone easy and straightforward access to company and brand homepages because customers who type brand and company names in the URL bar must be connected directly to the businesses’ sites. We also identify each thing, including companies, brands, individuals, and IoT (Internet of Things) devices by the use of real name domain in national language. In the smartphone and wearable

computing age, the real name domain solution is the most efficient solution with its “one touch” and “no typing” method (Voice command).

For the past 20 years, Netpia.com has concentrated its efforts in developing its core technology and building the basic infrastructure in order to achieve its goals and prepare for the market of the future. Moreover, by successfully providing the test service of real name domain service in 95 different counties, Netpia offers this service globally.
