IETF Meetings
The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) is the leading Internet standards body. It develops open standards through open processes with one goal in mind: to make the Internet work better.
While the work of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) happens year-round, the IETF holds in-person meetings three times a year in locations around the world. The seven-day meetings are full of activities best done face to face, including technical Working Group sessions, hackathons, an IETF Codesprint, newcomers’ training, and technical tutorials.
The Internet Society provides a corporate home for the administrative entity that supports the IETF, the IAB, and the IRTF, and supports the work of these groups through a variety of programs. Learn more about our relationship with the IETF.
