Earlier this year, we wrote to this list [1] to advertise a job posting for an interim IETF sponsorship fundraiser. We are pleased to announce that Ken Boyden has started in the role this week. Ken’s bio is below. Although not previously an IETF participant, Ken brings a wealth of experience in sponsorship fundraising across a variety of industries and institutions.

Ken can be reached at [email-masked]<mailto:[email-masked]>. He will be on the ground in London for IETF 101.

We would also like to thank Joe Abley for his service as a volunteer sponsorship fundraiser while we were working to fill this role.

Regards,

Kathy Brown
ISOC CEO
