Who we are

We are a membership not-for-profit organization founded in 2001 to foster the Internet's use, evolution, and open development for the benefit of all people in Puerto Rico and throughout the World.  Our members are made up of energetic, enthusiastic, and committed individuals from the public at-large.

The formation of the Internet Society of Puerto Rico (ISOC-PR) allows us to represent the island in international forums, which set forth the rules of the Internet world. Observing the Internet as a medium that has maintained sustained growth in the Puerto Rico, we must present a voice globally to the active Internet international community.
