It was established in the late 1990s after NLnet’s commercial networking activities were reorganized, and it operates endowment-style funding for open hardware, open software, open standards, and related internet‑technology research. The foundation also manages funding programs such as NGI Zero and promotes awareness of its mission worldwide. (nlnet.nl)
