On Thursday, 23rd April 2026 at 11:00-12:00 EDT (15:00-16:00 UTC) the Industry Network Technology Council (INTC) and the India Internet Engineering Society (IIESoc) host a webinar ‘IP Address Geolocation‘.

IP-based geolocation is widely used today for applications such as content delivery, compliance, and network optimization, but has inherent limitations in accuracy, reliability, and user privacy. Jason Livingood will present an overview of the  IAB Workshop on IP Address Geolocation (IP-GEO) (ipgeows) which was held from December 3-5, 2025 as a three-day virtual meeting. He will explore current industry use cases, gaps in existing geolocation mechanisms, and the architectural challenges of relying on IP addresses for location inference, as well as discuss forward-looking approaches—including alternative, privacy-preserving location signals and improved data distribution methods—that aim to better meet enterprise, regulatory, and operational needs in modern Internet environments.
