Are you interested in hosting the RIPE 95 Meeting in Madrid at the Meliá Castilla Hotel from 15-19 November 2027?

We are inviting organisations within the RIPE NCC service region to submit a proposal to be considered as the meeting host. The deadline for submissions is 30 October 2026.

The local host supports the event by helping to provide Internet connectivity, sponsoring a social event, identifying venues for the social evenings, finding local sponsors, and offering administrative and on-site assistance. As a host, we rely on your organisation to help deliver a smooth, professional, and high-quality meeting experience for our attendees.

  • Accessibility to the city of Madrid (airport, airlines, railway, etc.).
  • If known, an outline of how you propose to arrange connectivity to the meeting venue.
  • A list of venues that can host social events with a capacity between 450 and 500 people.
  • A list of providers for barista, photography, transport (buses) and local printing.
