Dear colleagues, in less than a month, RIPE NCC will be hosting another RIPE meeting and this time around we're heading to the great city of Rotterdam! The dates are 22-26 of May; registration is already open and draft agenda is published with the final version coming soon. For more details, check the official page: https://ripe86.ripe.net Leading up to the meeting, on May 9 NCC will organise a free online event where you can get a brief intro into RIPE NCC and RIPE community, as well as the information about the RIPE 86 meeting itself. The planned duration of the event is 1h and 30min. NCC has also set aside a limited number of free student tickets (for all 5 days of the conference). We especially encourage students from Dutch and neighboring universities to apply, but the offer is extended to all. You can find more about the online event here: https://ripe86.ripe.net/programme/parallel-events/student-event Registration for the online event is free and will be open until May 8: https://meeting-registration.ripe.net/meeting-pub/registration?0&meetingId=ac9e8d9d-9d7d-4899-b476-81114052eda4 If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me.
