Register now for the live-stream event.

IEEE invites Internet enthusiasts and 460,000+ IEEE members from over 190 countries to join an engaging live-stream as we look back at the Internet’s humble beginnings and the important contributions of IEEE.

In May 1974, the IEEE Transactions on Communications scientific journal published the seminal paper “A Protocol for Packet Network Intercommunication.” Authored by Vinton Cerf and Robert Kahn, this paper described the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) that supported the interconnection of multiple packet-switched networks into a network of networks.
 
Join Vint Cerf and other luminaries in celebrating this milestone and exploring what is next in the evolution of the internet. Technical innovators and global leaders will discuss these breakthroughs and contemplate what it will take to create a people-centric future where the Internet benefits all of humanity. Join us on Sunday, 19 May 2024 as we celebrate the Internet’s 50th anniversary!
