NaMeX is pleased to announce that it will host, together with Consortium CASPUR, the 61th RIPE Meeting, that will be held in Rome from 15th to 19th November 2010. The meeting will be held in the wonderful location of Via Veneto, inside the Hotel Excelsior and will see the presence of ISPs and researchers from Europe and the rest of the world.

RIPE is one of the most important worldwide organizations in the Internet governance, both because it is responsible for IP addresses assignment for the region of Europe and Middle East and because its meetings and its Working Groups are one of the places where actually takes place the worldwide Internet growth and evolution.

RIPE was born 20 years ago from an initiative of some Internet pioneers (among which the italians Enzo Valente from GARR and Blasco Bonito, CNR) and from that point it has played a major role in the evolution of the Internet. Its Working Groups are actively involved in all discussions about worldwide Internet growth and improvement.
