The Hispanic Chamber of E-Commerce and .LAT Registry are going to work together to support the marketing efforts of businesses interested in reaching out Latinos on the Internet.
As part of the partnership, both organizations have agreed to launch the "TODOS LAT" campaign. A campaign focused on promoting the new .LAT domain as the best gTLD for organizations, causes and Latin projects on the internet, offering Internet presence with Latin Identity: High recognition label, stands-out from the rest of the Internet and promotes the Latin pride.
.LAT domain registration, an extension that will identify Latinos on the Internet, has started today.

To be able to participate during Sunrise, it is necessary to register the brand at the Trademark Clearinghouse (TMCH).
The Sunrise process will run for 60 days, starting February 16 and ending on April 16, 2015.
For more information regarding the registration process at the TMCH, please visit the .LAT Blog or the Trademark Clearinghouse Website.
