Conferences
Sponsoring of various conferences
NLnet historically contributed directly and indirectly to various third party conferences. In some cases, like the renowned SANE conferences, not only financially but also with man-power. Besides these large activities, it used to sponsor smaller events on an irregular bases. Those smaller conference contributions are collected on this page. Currently, NLnet puts the focus on R&D activities — this may change in the future, also depending on suitable budgets for this to become available. Meeting people in person and real human contact can greatly simplify working together on complex topics, and to coordinate work.
