To Leave Oversee.net Next Month — Jeff Kupietzky

CEO and president to leave one of domain name industry’s biggest firms.

Oversee.net CEO Jeff Kupietzky will depart the firm at the end of the August, the firm has disclosed. He will be moving his family to Israel.

Kupietzky has been with the firm for five years, with the last 2 1/2 years as CEO and President.

Going forward, day-to-day operations will be handled by Co-Presidents Debra Domeyer and Scott Morrow.

Kupietzky has had to manage a number of tough changes to the domain name business in recent years as well as firm scandals (e.g. SnapNames insider bidding scandal).

Although the firm has had its share of both good and bad press, Kupietzky did a lot of good for the industry. He represented the industry to the media with professionalism, often scoring key mass media interviews.

The notice comes regarding a month following three top executives left the firm.
