> Hi,
>
> today is an exciting day for the Internet Society. It gives me great
> pleasure to announce that Andrew Sullivan has been selected by the Board
> of Trustees to become the Internet Society’s new President and Chief
> Executive Officer, formally taking up his position on September 1, 2018.
>
> Many of you may know Andrew from his work in the Internet Engineering
> Task Force (IETF) and the Internet Architecture Board (IAB). He brings a
> wealth of Internet industry and technology experience with him. He
> served in a number of past roles, including time at Oracle Dyn managing
> Doman Name System (DNS) development and architecture departments and as
> the Internet Architecture Board (IAB) Chair for two consecutive years,
> 2015 and 2016. Andrew also played an instrumental role in the IANA
> Transition as many of you may remember. I’d encourage you all to read
> his testimony on the IAB Website:

> u-s-senate-at-iana-transition-hearing/
>
> Andrew is currently serving as chair of the IETF Administrative
> Oversight Committee (IAOC), where he has been involved with discussions
> around updating the relationship between the IETF and the Internet Society.
>
> Most importantly for us as a global community of members, organizations
> and individuals that care deeply about the Internet, he embodies the
> core values of openness, transparency, inclusion and diversity that lie
> at the very heart of the Internet Society. He is committed to the ISOC
> vision of an Internet that works for all of us, and believes fervently
> in the struggle to bring an Internet that is open, globally-connected,
> trusted and secure to everyone.
>
> Not only that, but he is also committed to strengthening and growing our
> global community. Together, we have built this global technical
> infrastructure, this resource to enrich people's lives, and this force
> for good in society. Because it is a challenging time for the Internet,
> he knows that it’s also a challenging time for the Internet Society, but
> he firmly believes in the power of this community to realize its shared
> vision for the Internet.
>
> I would like to take this opportunity to thank Kathy Brown for her
> strong leadership over the past four and a half years. She has been
> pivotal in the organization’s transformation and I believe that we have
> never been in a stronger position, not just to face the challenges ahead
> of us, but to emerge as a true world leader in shaping the path and
> future direction of the Internet for the good of all humanity.
>
> Kathy will continue in her current role as President and Chief Executive
> Officer of the Internet Society until September 1. On assuming his new
> role, Andrew will work with Kathy during a period of transition to
> ensure a smooth handover of responsibilities.
>
> Please join me in congratulating Andrew as we prepare to welcome him
> into the growing ISOC family as our new President and CEO.
>
> Cheers,
>
