First RIPE Meeting?

We want you to have a productive and enjoyable experience at your first RIPE Meeting. Once you pick up your meeting pack and badge, please visit the Meet & Greet Team. You’ll find us near the Registration Desk.

We’re on hand to explain the meeting format and answer your questions about RIPE, the RIPE Meeting and the RIPE NCC.

We can help you make an appointment with RIPE NCC staff to discuss issues that may be of interest to you, including Internet resource requests, becoming a member and billing information. We can also introduce you to key players from the RIPE community.

We’re around throughout RIPE 64 and if you have any questions before or during the meeting, please do get in touch with us via meet-greet [at] ripe [dot] net.
