Companies such as Google, Level 3, Microsoft, NTT, Netflix, Yahoo, and Amazon rely on NANOG to discuss key architectural and operational topics relevant to Internet infrastructure.

NANOG asks, in return, that all students complete our surveys in full and that their teaching staff provide us with a summary of how they used our program in the classroom and/or in coursework.
