This community of collaboration traverses disciplinary and institutional boundaries to advance the frontiers of high-performance networking in service of research and education.

Bill Decker, Facilitator, Internet2 Strategic Planning
Bill Decker, as CIO at The University of Iowa, was among the first 34 institutional representatives to commit to the creation of Internet2, Bill says, "My different career experiences have given me a variety of perspectives regarding the important roles that Internet2 plays in enabling research, education, and societal change. I am privileged to have this opportunity to work with old friends and new in a thoughtful examination of Internet2's future. In agreeing to take on this work, I insisted that Internet2's members write the plan. My role is to act as an informed but neutral facilitator to keep the process moving forward and to help insure that all input is in play."
