Internet Hall of Fame<br>
Welcomes 2014 Inductees at Ceremony in Hong<br>
Kong<br>
<br>
Ceremony celebrates 24 new<br>
members whose vision, innovation, and determination helped<br>
shape today’s Internet and expand global connectivity<br>
<br>
<br>
[Hong Kong -- 8 April 2014]<br>
Twenty-four people who designed and advanced the Internet as<br>
the global, world-changing platform that it is today will be<br>
inducted into the Internet Hall of Fame. The Internet Hall<br>
of Fame was launched in 2012<br>
by the Internet Society and this year’s ceremony will<br>
be held in Hong Kong on 8 April. Representing 13 countries,<br>
the 2014 class of inductees have pushed the boundaries of<br>
technological and social innovation to connect the<br>
world. Their trailblazing accomplishments<br>
are as broad and diverse as the Internet itself; expanding<br>
the Internet’s benefits into new regions and<br>
communities, and creating new technologies and standards<br>
that were foundational to the Internet’s development<br>
and expansion.<br>
<br>
<br>
The Internet Hall of Fame<br>
celebrates Internet leaders and innovators from around the<br>
world who believe in the design and potential of an open<br>
Internet and, through their work, have helped change the way<br>
we live and work today. The 2014<br>
inductees embody that vision:<br>
