<https://www.meetup.com/isoc-ny/events/245536862/>On *December 19th,
1997*, *ISOC-NY
<http://isoc-ny.org/>* was formally established as an* Internet Society
<http://isoc.org/>* Chapter representing the Greater New York area.  In
those two decades, the City has progressed from 14.4k dial up to gigabit
connections, pioneered *public Wi-Fi <https://www.link.nyc/>* and *Open
Data <https://opendata.cityofnewyork.us/>*, been delegated its own *Top
Level Domain <http://www.ownit.nyc/>*, and become a center of the digital
economy. We salute our members, their colleagues, and fellows, who have
worked long and hard to make all this possible. *On Wednesday December 2017
at 6pm there will be a celebration party at LMHQ*. Some ISOC-NY founders
will be there to share some stories of the early days, while at the same
time we will be looking to the present, including landmark projects
such as *NYC
Mesh <http://nycmesh.net/>*, and the future - we have exciting initiatives
in the works for 2018!

*Join us as we celebrate 20 years of working towards an open and accessible
Internet for all! The whole of the NYC Internet Community is invited! It'll
be a wonderful evening with food and drinks. Come!*
