Thematic index
Stichting NLnet is a recognised public benefit organisation that works towards an open and inclusive information society. NLnet recognises that the most effective way to achieve this, is through providing microgrants to talented individuals and to organisations that are aligned with its mission. An important focus of NLnet lies with research and development in the domain of network technology and the internet, in particular those that serve the end user and the long-term interests of the end users.
