In 2019, the Number of New Members Increased by 30% in the Countries Visited by LACNIC

In the midst of the current coronavirus pandemic, the Internet has proven to be a very useful tool, particularly for the technical community of Latin America and the Caribbean, where it has made it possible to hold the first online LACNIC event. By the second day of the meeting, more than 1520 participants had registered for the event.

While presenting the 2019 Annual Report, LACNIC CEO Oscar Robles highlighted how the organization is working with smaller ISPs in the region. This work has allowed an average increase of 30% in the number of new members in the countries the organization visited last year. In this sense, he observed that LACNIC had been present at ten events attended by a total of more than 4,500 participants in Argentina, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador and Mexico.

Colombia led the growth of new members with an increase of 84% compared to 2018, followed by Mexico (64%), Ecuador (23%) and Argentina (14%).

Throughout 2019, LACNIC registered 1,564 new members, which represented an 18.5% growth of its membership base and allowed the organization to close the year with 10,039 members. Since then, more than 500 new organizations have joined LACNIC, which now has a total of 10,568 members.
