Does not represent commercial interests

Jan 2023 - Dec 2023

Since 20 September 2021 self-declared 'non-commercial organisations' are no longer required to provide a lobby budget. See above timeline for this registrant's historical lobby budget.

30,420,000€

Information of our budget can be found here: https://www.internetsociety.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/2023-Internet-Society-Financials.pdf
As you can see, 77.75% of our revenue comes from a single source, the Public Interest Registry, which is a non-for-profit organisation. There is no any other donor that contributes above 10% of the total budget.

I could not find in the form the appropriate information box to disclose the fact that the Internet Society hires an intermediary to represent our interests at EU level, according to the guidelines. The name of the firm is NOVE and the total annual cost is EUR 53.000.

The Internet Society organises and participates in various events linked to internet governance and related policy implementation in Europe. We also publish and make aware reports on the latest developments of the Internet. The list below is indicative of our most recent activities.

EuroDIG: The Internet Society is an institutional partner to the regional European Dialogue on Internet Governance, EuroDIG, alongside the European Commission, the Council of Europe and other non-governmental organisations. We pro-actively take part in the planning of the event and contribute to the programme.

National Internet Governance Forums (IGF): The Internet Society drives and participates in several national IGFs initiatives in European Member States, often through our Chapters.

Global Internet Report 2021: The Internet Society publishes annually a Global Internet Report highlighting and assessing the latest technical and policy developments impacting the Internet.

Policy briefs: The Internet Society publishes policy papers, reports and other documents for sharing insights and vision on how to achieve our mission. Our most recent publications are available here: https://www.internetsociety.org/publications/

Internet Impact Assessment Toolkit: The Internet Society has created a toolkit that helps assess whether a law proposal, business decision or technology could impact the Internet, and how to prevent it from harming what the Internet needs to exist and thrive for all. Some Impact Briefs can be found here: https://www.internetsociety.org/issues/internet-way-of-networking/internet-impact-assessment-toolkit/

Monitoring of Internet shutdowns: The Internet Society publishes Pulse a website that monitors Internet shutdowns to help everyone understand the health, availability and evolution of the global Internet. More information is available here: https://pulse.internetsociety.org/

2 meetings found. Download meetings

The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.

1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
