Community Sponsorship
We aim to support a vibrant and open RIPE community, and more broadly open initiatives for the good of the Internet.
Through the RIPE Academic Cooperation Initiative, RIPE Meeting Fellowships, and efforts in diversity, equity, and inclusion, we're building a stronger community foundation. Sponsorship here supports not just events and tools, but the very heart of the Internet community.
With tailored packages, your support can help expand these initiatives, ensuring the Internet remains a space for everyone. Discover how you can make a difference and contribute to more open, inclusive and diverse community.

Support Community Initiatives
As a Sponsor, your organisation will receive significant recognition and visibility, aligning with the Gold and Platinum tiers' benefits. This level is tailored for those who are deeply committed to supporting the RIPE community's initiatives, including RACI, RIPE Meeting and Regional Meeting Fellowships, and efforts towards diversity, equity, and inclusion.
Both the Sponsor and Supporter levels are designed to provide meaningful support to the community support initiatives by the RIPE NCC, which aims to foster a thriving, open, and secure Internet. Through your sponsorship, you contribute to building a stronger community foundation, supporting diversity, equity, and inclusion, and ensuring the Internet remains a space for everyone. Discover the impact your organisation can make and gain recognition among a dedicated community striving for the future of the Internet.
