For more than 25 years, the RIPE NCC has been supporting activities and 
projects for the “Good of the Internet”. Community-driven, non 
commercial work has been fundamental to the success of the Internet from 
its earliest days, and continues to play an important role in making the 
Internet resilient, secure and accessible for everyone.

Under the RIPE NCC Community Projects Fund, the RIPE NCC will provide up 
to EUR 250,000 per year to support projects of value to the operation, 
sustainability and resilience of the Internet, with a focus on tools and 
services benefitting the technical community in the Europe, the Middle 
East and Central Asia.

Apply now to get your project funded!
