The Internet2 community will gather in Raleigh, North Carolina for the Fall 2011 Internet2 Member Meeting. The meeting will be hosted by MCNC, operators of the North Carolina Research and Education Network (NCREN), in coordination with their annual NCREN Community Day.

The theme for the meeting is “Creating the Future: Collaborations and Connections.” Internet2 and its members are, indeed, creating the future by building collaborations and making connections with the Research and Education community around the world. The focus of the Fall meeting program will build on the “Path Forward, Envisioning Opportunities” theme of the Spring 2011 Member Meeting, where the seven strategic priorities that are the foundation of Internet2’s future direction were shared and discussed.
