Membership Benefits
A key benefit of Internet2 membership is collaboration among organizations from academia, industry, and government. By enabling work across disciplines and technologies, Internet2 membership provides a unique environment in which our diverse community can pursue initiatives that further the research and education mission of higher education and position the U.S. as a leader in advanced networking.

What Internet2 Members are Saying:
"Working closely with the Internet2 community and our international partners has been one of the most rewarding activities I’ve had the good fortune to engage in. The time and energy we’ve invested have been repaid a thousandfold. We’ve stayed at the leading edge of ideas that have influenced the infrastructure we’ve developed within our state, and we’ve been able to collaborate with others on all sides of the Pacific to dramatically advance the global connectivity we provide in support of our scholars, educators and students."
