The European Internet Foundation (EIF) was founded in March 2000 by three Members of the European Parliament (MEP) from 3 different political groups: James Elles, Erika Mann and Elly Plooij-van Gorsel. In 2014 it changed its name into 'European Internet Forum' to better reflect its 'raison d'etre'.
Mission Statement
EIF’s mission is to help provide European political leadership for the development of European and multilateral public policies responsive to the political, economic and social challenges of the worldwide digital transformation, and support MEPs from all political groups to ensure that Europe remains at the forefront of this transformation and benefits fully from it through enhanced global competitiveness and social progress.
EIF focuses on issues and actions at the top of the political agenda and on emerging future trends at both European and global level. Through a continuous programme of live debates and special projects featuring open and inclusive dialogue, EIF creates a space for greater understanding of the digital world.
Members
The European Internet Forum is led and governed by our Political Members, all of whom are elected Members of the European Parliament (MEPs). We are independent, not-for-profit and non-partisan. Membership in the European Internet Forum is open to all current MEPs.
EIF membership also includes a variety of leading companies and organisations which together encompass a broad range of interests and actors in the vanguard of internet and ICTs. We continually seek to expand the breadth and depth of interests and points of view within the EIF membership on a non-discriminatory basis.
The Forum is financed primarily through the membership fees of our Business and Associate Members. Functioning as a real “network organisation”, EIF provides all its members with the opportunity to actively participate in its activities and to help shape EIF’s programme and event agendas.
