About RIGF
The Fifth Russian Internet Governance Forum will take place on April 7, 2014, in Marriott Grand Hotel, in Moscow, Russia. The event is hosted by the Coordination Center for TLD RU/РФ and the Technical Center of Internet, and supported by ICANN and RAEC.
This year, the central topic of the forum will be the variety of forms that government policies take when it comes to governing the global network. RIGF attendees will discuss topical events and new trends in Internet governance. Leading experts – industry players, government representatives, scientific specialists and businesses – will provide their opinions in a series of talks.
Russian Internet Governance Forum is an event where all professional views can be brought to attention and discussed. We aim to find a consensus between government agencies, telecommunications industry, businesses and society, leading to successful results in Russia and worldwide. With many ideas expressed during previous events turning into hands-on projects for Russian and international organizations, this year's Forum is to become a starting point for many collaborations for all RIGF attendees.
