Today we are pleased to announce an agreement with the Internet Society that extends their significant existing financial commitment to the IETF and establishes a new program to help fundraising efforts aimed at further strengthening the IETF’s long-term financial position.

The commitment of up to US$71 million over the next 6 years provides a truly transformative opportunity for the IETF, for which we are immensely grateful.  Organizational sponsors, meeting hosts, and participation fees will remain significant components of the IETF’s overall financial support. I have published a post on the IETF Blog to provide additional details:
