For those of you who don´t know me, I´m</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">I´m interested in enhancing the cooperation and dialogue between
<span style="color:black">the EU Commission, </span>governments, authorities, and the technical community! I would be taking on the role as a representative of my employer.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US">PTS recognize the importance of taking part of the existing processes on Internet Governance, for instance the
<span style="color:black">RIPE meetings and the </span>PDP, <span style="color:black">
and to decrease</span> the gap in the dialogue between governments and the technical community.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US" style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US">I´ve experience from e.g. regulation, cooperation and promoting Network and Information Security in Sweden.
<span style="color:black">I</span>´ve been attending RIPE meetings since 2008 in order to follow
<span style="color:black">and take part in </span>the development and discussions within the community´s area since PTS is the Swedish sector authority for electronic communications and we need to be updated on what´s going on. For instance I´ve been working
with promoting the deployment of IPv6 and DNSSEC in public bodies in Sweden<span style="color:black"> – also in enhanced cooperation</span>.<span style="color:black"> We also have experience from when there has been a lack of dialogue, which did not result
in successful regulation, wherefore I´m an advocate of enhanced dialogue between governments and the technical community.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US">I´ve also experience from arranging Swedish Cooperation fora since 2007. PTS is the host for RGIG, Reference Group on Internet Governance, where representatives from different ministries, authorities, the private sector
and the Internet community, meet three times per year. <span style="color:black">
We use an email list between the meetings </span>in order to distribute information about accurate issues<span style="color:black">, for instance
</span>EU directives, ITU resolutions, information from RIPE, articles etc.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US">I would be glad to make an effort in having more representatives from the regulation side, governments, NRA, etc. taking part of the RIPE Community and enhancing the dialogue!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
