Dear colleagues, RIPE 87 ended with a total of 557 attendees checked in onsite in Rome and 463 unique participants on Meetecho across the meeting week, with more joining in via the livestream and YouTube.Thank you all for making this RIPE Meeting such a success! We were happy to see active participation at this meeting from both online and onsite participants. We would like to thank all the speakers, Working Group Chairs, the Programme Committee and sponsors for their contributions. It was also great to hear more about how we can make RIPE Meetings more accessible and inclusive at the Diversity and Inclusion session. Over the past week, we have had several plenary sessions and lightning talks, Working Group sessions followed by the Closing Plenary.
