EMPLOYMENT EXPERIENCE IN JAPAN
Twenty-nine years in Japan with "Long Term Resident" Visa. Employed by Barclay & Co., Tokyo, Aug. 1971 to Nov. 1977. Formed International Technical Trading, Inc. in 1978 and serve as its President. INTEC imports consumer products from the OECD countries.
Also serve as President of Procurement Services International, Inc., formed in 1981. Until July 1999, "PSI" provided translations of Standards issued by the Government of Japan (GOJ), Telecommunications Interconnect Type Approvals, etc. More importantly, PSI translated those government tenders which are open to foreign competitive bidding under GATT Government Procurement Agreement (GPA), starting in 1981 (subsequently WTO). PSI also provided contract award notices, which became available under the 1987 revision of the GPA. PSI's tender and award notices were published daily in The Supplement to the Official Journal of the EU (OJ-S) and OJ-S CD-ROM, and posted on Tenders Electronic Daily (TED), an on-line database maintained by the EU.
In 1982, established "Govpurch", the first on-line database of Japanese Government Procurement notices, available on Control Data (CDC). Among the first users of Email from Japan when "message switching" was legalized in April of 1983.
Established PSI's first Web site in August 1995. Wrote code for production and formatting of translations by PSI-Japan and PSI-USA. Functionality included relational look-ups for agency names and addresses, industrial product classifications (those "generic" CPV's which some officials would like to omit from SLD's), etc. PSI's work went directly into print in the Official Journal Supplement without verification (other than one percent spot checks). PSI's quality is recognized as the best of any organization formatting tenders for OJ-S. Our work is normally "shipped" via Internet to the EU by 15:30 daily on the same date that it is published in "Kampo" (the Official Gazette of The Government of Japan). It was received in Luxembourg before the start of business the same calendar day and in print in two to three days. (PSI-Japan has a large stake in the stability of the Internet!)
As a direct result of PSI's integrity and its reliable, high quality work over the prior fourteen years, in 1995 the EU appointed PSI as Sales Agent for EU Official books, periodicals, CD-ROM's and data bases (such as TED).
President of Procurement Services International, Inc. (PSI-USA). PSI-USA reformatted U.S. tender and award notices from Commerce Business Daily (CBD) for publication in OJ-S and posting on TED. PSI-USA also markets EU Official CD-ROM's and Off-Line Products.

OVERVIEW
As the Founder and Chairman of Namesecure, Jeff Field has had a hand in virtually every development of the company. From the company's inception in 1995, Jeff's hands-on style, coupled with his keen business sense and his ability to think and act creatively, have helped the company grow to become one of the top domain name registration companies on the Internet.
Unlike many emerging technology companies in and around the Silicon Valley, Namesecure's growth has been smart growth and Jeff has been the key driver of this growth. Years before ICANN created a system for accrediting registrars of domain names, Jeff's entrepreneurial nature helped him see a great opportunity to provide a service and attract a sizeable customer base in the registering of domain names. By the time his company was selected in the first group of registrars to be accredited by ICANN, Jeff already had nearly four years of registration experience and Namesecure had grown its customer base to a substantial level.
As the domain name industry has taken shape over the past couple years, Jeff has been an active participant in the ICANN meetings and its working subgroups. He has also, since its formation, been a member of the Registrar Constituency.
While Jeff's education and experience are far from traditional, the road he has pursued has given him a unique, well-rounded perspective on a wide array of business matters. As a member of the Board, Jeff will prove to be a thoughtful, grounded member with a drive to see the Registry succeed well beyond the current plans.
