About NLNOG
The NLNOG Foundation facilitates the Dutch and Global Internet Engineering Community as event organizer and driver of cooperation projects such as the NLNOG RING. The foundation assists in the development of tools and services for the good of the Internet.
NLNOG finds its roots in 2002 with a mailing list. The foundation now among other activities manages various tools and organises events like NLNOG Day and a New Years Drink.
The non-profit foundation (Dutch: “Stichting NLNOG”) is registered at the Chamber of Commerce in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Funding is generously provided by both companies and individuals.
NLNOG organizes events, maintains tools, and fosters a vibrant community of network professionals. We facilitate knowledge exchange and cooperation within the Internet engineering community through free events and conferences.
